HISTORY
Ischia is part of a large volcanic area that was very active in the distant past, and its rocks and mountains bear witness to their volcanic formation. In the eighth century BC, Ischia was colonised by the Greeks, and belonged for a time to Gerone of Syracuse (Siracusa), who built a fortress on the spot of the present Castello Aragonese. Repeated earthquakes and eruptions finally caused the Greek colonists to leave the island. In Roman times, the island belonged to the Emperor Augustus, who gave it to the Neapolitans in return for Capri. Earthquakes have been more common in recent centuries, and a large earthquake in 1883 destroyed many of the island's historic buildings.

Ischia The Hidden Paradise Part I. Sant'Angelo,Panza,Casamicciola (TravellingFromNaples+Travel info)
Book your hotel with this link on Booking.com and get €15 back.
In this video we are wandering around in the south part of this beautiful island. To get to Ischia you basically need to fly to Naples. That's the closest airport anyway. It's quite easy to get to Ischia from Naples Molo Beverello. From the airport you can get on a bus (€5) to the port. I'd recommend to buy ferry tickets online in advance.
I've used but there are more options out there. Prices are pretty much the same. (€40/person return, 2018)
After you purchase your ticket they send an email confirmation which you have to print out. With that conf. you can collect your tickets at the port. Each ferry company has its own stall next to each other. It says in the confirmation that you have to be there 1 hour before the ferry leaves but no one asked us anything, could have got there just 10 mins before departure.
It takes about 1 hour to get to Casamicciola Terme, Ischia. From there (2mins from the port) you can catch a bus (they run till late night) for about €2 (You can buy tickets from the driver). It takes about 30-40mins to get to the south part of the island where Panza and Sant'Angelo are. It's truly a beautiful island and there are many many things to do.
I've downloaded an App (Ischia Island Travel Guide) which helped me a lot to get around and search for things to do.

Places to see in ( Isola d'Ischia - Italy )
Ischia is a volcanic island in the Gulf of Naples, Italy. It's known for its mineral-rich thermal waters. Hot springs bubble up at Maronti Beach, in the south. East, Roman remains lie beneath the sea floor at Cartaromana Beach. The beach has views of medieval Aragonese Castle, linked to Ischia by a stone bridge. Nearby, 18th-century Palazzo dell’Orologio houses the Sea Museum, devoted to Ischia’s fishing tradition.
Isola d'Ischia is a volcanic island in the Tyrrhenian Sea. It lies at the northern end of the Gulf of Naples, about 30 kilometres (19 miles) from the city of Naples. It is the largest of the Phlegrean Islands. Roughly trapezoidal, it measures approximately 10 km (6 miles) east to west and 7 km (4 miles) north to south and has about 34 km (21 miles) of coastline and a surface area of 46.3 square kilometres (17.9 sq mi). It is almost entirely mountainous; the highest peak is Mount Epomeo, at 788 metres (2,585 feet). The island is very densely populated, with 60,000 residents (more than 1,300 inhabitants per square km).
Ischia is the name of the main comune of the island. The other comuni of the island are Barano d'Ischia, Casamicciola Terme, Forio, Lacco Ameno, and Serrara Fontana. Ischia's main industry is tourism, centering on thermal spas that cater mostly to European (especially German) and Asian tourists eager to enjoy the fruits of the island's natural volcanic activity, its hot springs, and its volcanic mud.
The Aragonese Castle (Castello Aragonese, Ischia Ponte) was built on a rock near the island in 474 BC, by Hiero I of Syracuse. At the same time, two towers were built to control enemy fleets' movements. The rock was then occupied by Parthenopeans (the ancient inhabitants of Naples). In 326 BC the fortress was captured by Romans, and then again by the Parthenopeans.
The gardens, located in Forio-San Francesco, were originally the property of English composer William Walton. Walton lived in the villa next to the gardens with his Argentinian wife Susana. When the composer arrived on the island in 1946, he immediately called Russell Page from England to lay out the garden. Wonderful tropical and Mediterranean plants were planted and some have now reached amazing proportions. The gardens include wonderful views over the city and harbour of Forio. A museum dedicated to the life and work of William Walton now comprises part of the garden complex. There's also a recital room where renowned musical artists perform on a regular schedule.
A botanical garden, located in Forio-Citara Bay, is the result of 50 years of the dedicated work of Captain Giuseppe D'Ambra, the owner of the Villa. Giardini Ravino is a botanical garden with one of the richest collection of cacti and succulents cultivated outdoors in Europe. Giardini Ravino has been the subject of an award from the OPE (European Parliamentary Observatory) for the most ecofriendly property in South Italy.
Villa La Colombaia is located in Lacco Ameno and Forio territories. Surrounded by a park, the villa (called The Dovecote) was made by Luigi Patalano, a famous local socialist and journalist. It is now the seat of a cultural institution and museum dedicated to Luchino Visconti.
