Aeolian Islands – Sicily: seven volcanic sisters between fire, wind and the ancestral beauty of the Tyrrhenian Sea. The Aeolian Islands are an archipelago of volcanic origin in the north of Sicily, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its geological and landscape value. Seven islands – Lipari, Salina, Vulcano, Stromboli, Panarea, Filicudi and Alicudi – offer different experiences: from trekking on the craters to the dolce vita through whitewashed alleys, up to the crystal clear sea and timeless silences. 🌋 Active volcanoes and breathtaking landscapes: The heart of the Aeolian Islands is volcanic: the crater of Stromboli, in continuous activity, and the Great Crater of Vulcano offer spectacular excursions between fumaroles and ancient flows. From each island you can admire views of the others, in a play of profiles and lights unique in the Mediterranean. 👉 Tip: Book a sunset excursion on Stromboli or Vulcano with an authorized guide: the colors of the sky and the lit lava give strong and unrepeatable emotions. 🏖️ Transparent sea and scenic coasts: The Aeolian Islands boast black volcanic beaches, rocky coves and rich seabeds. Each island has its own jewel: Cala Junco in Panarea, the Pools of Venus in Vulcano, the White Beach of Lipari, Pollara in Salina, the wild coasts of Alicudi and Filicudi. 👉 Tip: Organize a boat tour to discover the most hidden coves and dive where the water is clearest and bluest. 🚶 Excursions, villages and local traditions: From scenic paths through vineyards and broom to seaside villages with white houses and blue windows, each island invites you to explore. The Aeolian culture still lives in the slow rhythms, in the seafood cuisine, in the craft markets and in the religious festivals that animate the summer. 👉 Tip: Salina is ideal for those who love walking among nature and vineyards, Lipari for those looking for a little bit of everything, Panarea for those who prefer discreet elegance. 🏨 Hospitality between comfort and authenticity: The Aeolian Islands offer hotels with a view, B&Bs surrounded by greenery, houses for rent and structures made from ancient dammusi. Hospitality varies from island to island: more structured in Lipari and Vulcano, more exclusive in Panarea, more authentic and quiet in Filicudi and Alicudi. 👉 Tip: Book well in advance in high season, especially if you want to sleep in typical structures or in a panoramic position. The Aeolian Islands cannot be crossed: they are inhabited with the senses, between fire and salt, silences and horizons that change at every hour of the day.
