"A fantastic fable ? No, just the simple and accurate truth of a fantastic playground for the person who decides to come. Ischia has it! A banana tree right next door to a big fruitful chestnut, miracle of our generous climate, Ischia has it ! Fresh icy water pooled in rocks dug by farmers and sheepherders of times gone by. Ischia has it! Natural saunas and thermal springs, singeing hot sand where eggs and bell peppers can be cooked, and the warm burning sea to be dived into every season of the year.					The main means of mass communication on the island of Ischia. The island of Ischia has its very own Senator
				On Ischia you can admire the most beautiful backdrops in the Mediterranean, the elegant Poseidonia and the allegro anemone, the sulky sargo, and the seahorse; the rarest and most elegant plants are present on our isle; the sunny yellow blossomed ginestre and the delicate wild strawberries, the noble mirtle trees, and tasty mushrooms, the exotic fejoia and the modest corbezzolo berries, the fragrant cyclamin and sun ripened prickly pears; mountain springs and sea grottoes; rabbits nests and schools of fish; playful dolphins and wreckless goats: And Ischia has all this! Black coral, shady woods, solitary beaches, majestic oaks, rough cliffs, green lawns, the deep sea, houses made out of rocks, an antique castle, the raggio verde: Ischia has it!
			Here you can see the fisherman who has just finished mending his nets chat with the sheepherder intent on producing his tasty caciotta cheese and it seems as if you have gone back in time. Only the person who doesn't want to see is capable of not seeing all of the beauty created, forgetting; however, that only few are so honored and able to appreciate it."
