Giardini Ravino

This year, among the highlights of new openings in Ischia, we recommend an original garden worth visiting. Open only a few days a week, the garden offers a fascinating walk through a variety of exotic and local vegetation. On display, among water streams, is an impressive collection of cacti and other plants that look like natural sculptures - a collection gathered over 30 years which is a must see for any any garden fan.

I loved this garden. Though small in area, it makes the maximum use of space and different levels to show off an amazing variety of different cactus plants. You don't even have to be a cactus fan to enjoy it, the place is artistic and just a pleasure to explore. Right at the centre is a whitewashed building that used to be little old winery, but now acts as the cafe / restaurant. It's a really nice place to relax, on a terrace with quirky wooden furniture and sun canopies - slightly bohemian. Peacocks strut around freely, being noisy but amusing show-offs. We had a simple tasty lunch of Linguini Al Lemone - a little hand written sign in the cafe said the lemons used were picked from the garden. It's perfectly possible to walk to Giardini Ravino from Forio town. Head along the coast road towards the Poseiden thermal resort but turn uphill past the "Lovers Rocks" (Google maps will guide you.) The last bit of the walk is fairly steep, but not a problem unless its terribly hot.

these thermal spa gardens Are absolute bliss and a must see when in ischia. We spent two afternoons here during our 5 night holiday ... apart from being spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained and staffed by a very pleasant staff, the thermal pools (20 approximately) are amazing, with varying temperatures and sizes, they are interspersed by sun loungers, deck chairs and parasols. The private beach here overlooks a bay and the sunset is spectacular.. there is a restaurant offering a wide variety of delicious and reasonably priced food, along with beers and wine. This destination is well worth a visit and worth every cent: highly recommend it
