The Phlegraean Islands are a volcanic archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea, just off the coast of Naples. The group includes Ischia, Procida, and Capri, each offering a distinct character. Ischia is the largest, known for its lush green hills, thermal spas, and sandy beaches. Procida charms with pastel-colored houses and a quieter atmosphere, while Capri dazzles with rugged cliffs, upscale boutiques, and the famous Blue Grotto. Visitors can island-hop by ferry, explore ancient Roman ruins, hike volcanic craters, and soak in natural hot springs. The islands combine dramatic volcanic landscapes with Mediterranean culture, making them a popular escape from the mainland.
