Ischia is reached only by sea, on ferries and hydrofoils from Naples (Beverello and Calata Porta di Massa) and Pozzuoli, run by Caremar, Medmar and others. Dogs are allowed on board with a leash and muzzle, or in a carrier for small pets, so the crossing is straightforward with the right kit. On the island itself you can use the EAV buses that loop the coast road, licensed taxis and the open micro-taxis, or simply walk the seafronts and car-free Sant'Angelo.

| Mode | Policy | Tip |
|---|---|---|
| Ferry & hydrofoil (Naples / Pozzuoli) | Caremar and Medmar accept dogs on a leash and muzzle, kept in the dedicated animal area or on the external deck; small pets travel in a carrier. Carry your dog's health record with up-to-date vaccinations. | ๐ก Book the car ferry rather than the fast hydrofoil for a nervous dog; there is more deck space and a calmer ride. |
| EAV island buses | The EAV buses that circle the island accept a leashed, muzzled dog at the driver's discretion; small dogs travel in a carrier. Buses get very crowded in summer, so travel outside peak hours and keep your dog by the doors. | ๐ก Carry a soft muzzle for a larger dog; it is expected on Italian regional buses and avoids being refused. |
| Taxi, micro-taxi & walking | Ischia's licensed taxis and open three-wheel micro-taxis usually take a clean, leashed dog if you ask; agree the fare first. Sant'Angelo is entirely car-free, so you explore the village and its waterfront on foot with your dog. | ๐ก Fares are unmetered on the island, so agree the price before you set off, especially in summer. |
