Ischia is a well-known thermal destination and one of the most appreciated tourist locations of Italy. The numerous spa centres have rather high prices and so the free thermal springs can be a good option. The spring of Sorgeto is among them and it is located in the area near Forio.

It is possible to reach it by sea or on foot through a long stair case, which starts in the village of Panza. It offers numerous mineral boiling ponds, which come out from the bottom of the sea at the temperature of 90 °C.  The islanders are used to cook eggs, potatoes and sea food in one of the smallest puddles. The mild winter temperatures allow the visitors to bath also in the coldest days. Attention: the cliffs and the stairs may become extremely hot during Summer and so it is advisable to wear suitable shoes.
