This active sailing adventure in Italy is full of phenomenal experiences. From sailing on a historic tall ship to hiking on volcanoes, immersing yourself in 6,000-year-old culture and exploring the beautiful archipelago, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The volcanic islands in the Tyrrhenian Sea off the northern coast of Sicily are characterised by wild, unspoilt nature. They are known as the ‘Aeolian or Lipari Islands’ because, according to Greek legend, the god of wind, Aeolus, once lived here. This jewel in the Mediterranean consists of seven inhabited islands and each one is different. From beautiful green hills to bubbling craters, you will find a wide variety of unique natural landscapes in a very small area. In 2000, the Aeolian Islands archipelago was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
Stromboli’s regular volcanic eruptions offer a unique natural spectacle, and its volcanic mountains and Mediterranean landscapes are a true paradise for hikers. Since ancient times, the Stromboli volcano has been a landmark for sailors at night. Stromboli erupts every 15-20 minutes. Depending on the magma level in the chimney, lava oysers are hurled up to several hundred metres above the rim of the crater.
An unforgettable and varied sailing holiday with daily shore excursions that provide a pleasant contrast to the cosy life on board. Take a Vespa tour on the island of Lipari or perhaps a shopping tour on the elegant and chic luxury island of Panarea. Or take a stroll on the island of Salina, famous for its capers and sweet wine.
