The Fishermen's Beach at the Mandra

The rounded outline of Vivara. the walls and towers of the castle in the background take shape in the hands of little ones kneading sand with seawater.

The Fishermen's Beach at the Mandra is ideal for playing on the shoreline, learning to swim on the shallow water, and snorkeling among schools of fish that push ashore. In the early morning, it's time for yoga and water aerobics, and by canoe you skirt the shoreline from Ischia Ponte to Punta Molino, where lava plunged into the sea. Free stretches alternate with establishments equipped with bars and restaurants, among fishermen's homes.
