FROM NAPLES CAPODICHINO AIRPORT TO ISCHIA
To reach Ischia from Naples Capodichino airport you must head towards one of the maritime ports of Beverello or Porta di Massa from where you will cross by sea to Ischia via hydrofoil or ferry.
From the airport you have two main options of getting to the maritime ports. The first option is to take an "Alibus", an airport bus service that runs between the airport, the main train station (Stazione Centrale) and Beverello Port. The Alibus runs every 20- 25 minutes and the journey time is around 20 minutes, meaning a maximum transfer time of 45 minutes and a minimum of 20 minutes. Tickets for the Alibus are €4 per person if purchased on the bus from the driver, or €3 per person if purchased from a designated vendor at the airport.
For precise timings of the Alibus service please see the links below to the official timetables:

BEVERELLO PORT AND PORTA DI MASSA
At present, Ischia is served by crossings from two ports in Naples, Beverello and Porta di Massa. Beverello port is used for hydrofoil crossings and Porta di Massa is for ferries.
Hydrofoils are generally faster than ferries with a journey time of around 1 hour as opposed to an hour and 40 minutes on the ferry. There is a difference in price to reflect the faster journey times with hydrofoils priced at €18.60 per person each way while the ferries are around €13 per person each way.
The two ports are close to each other but not really what you would consider a reasonable walking distance. This being the case, there is a free shuttle bus service between the two ports which takes around 5 minutes with services every 15/20 minutes.
