Ischia's thermal gardens — which to pick
Poseidon, Negombo, Castiglione, Cavascura. Different prices, different vibes, all genuinely hot water from the volcano.
The big two
Poseidon (Forio) — 22 pools from 18°C to 40°C arranged across hillside terraces, a private beach, three restaurants. €35–45 entry, full day. The biggest, the most touristed, the best for a first visit.
Negombo (Lacco Ameno) — 14 pools, a small botanic garden, more intimate, more design-forward. Same price, half the crowd. The locals' pick.
The wild option
Cavascura (Sant'Angelo) is a free hot spring in a natural gorge — no terraces, no bar, no organisation. Bring a swimsuit and walk in. Skip if you need a sun lounger.
