Naples (Mergellina port and Molo Beverello) and Pozzuoli are the two main land centres closest to the islands of the gulf. 
 

Molo Beverello is the biggest port of Naples; ferries and  hydrofoils of  Caremar and Lauro ensures connections to Ischia main port.  Connections with Naples airport and central railway station are ensured by bus and taxi.

Mergellina port is the second port of Naples; connections to Ischia islands are by hydrofoil only (passengers only on board). Frequent connections to Ischia main port (Lauro) and to Casamicciola port (SNAV). Connections with Naples airport and central railway station are ensured by bus and taxi. Mergellina railway station is also very close (150mt): a frequent railway metropolitan service connects central and Mergellina railway stations.

Pozzuoli port is located on the north of Naples and is well connected to Naples by highway  (the railway metropolitan service also connects Pozzuoli railway station with Naples central station). Pozzuoli port ensures transportations by ferries to Ischia main port and Casamicciola port. Its geographic position (closest to Ischia) makes the transportation to the island more convenient (for the costs and the duration) for all people who want to bring a car to the island.
