Stromboli - Check in at the port of Tropea at 7.15, departure at 7:45 and after about two CIRCUMNAVIGATION OF STROMBOLICCHIO, SCIARA AND GINOSTRA, a typical village with its characteristic white houses and Aeolian architecture. In the immediate vicinity of the landing there are the suggestive black beaches, where it is possible to swim.
Free time allows you to have an aperitif or dine in a restaurant with a sea view, stroll through the narrow streets of the picturesque village, go and visit the church of San Vincenzo or the Operations Center of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology on the Promenade or to observe the traditional fishermen. - Lipari - Second stop of the tour is Lipari, the queen of the Aeolian Islands. Stop about 2:30 h
It is the largest island and seat of the municipality that also administers the other islands, with the exception of Salina.
On the hill, a sheer lava rock that separates the two bays of Marina Corta and Marina Lunga, it is possible to visit the Aeolian Regional Museum, one of the most important in Italy, located within the walls of the fortified castle with a spectacular view of the coast.
Also not to be missed are the Greek-Roman Acropolis and the Cathedral of San Bartolomeo of Norman origin. The historic center offers a variety of shops where you can spend your time shopping.
In Lipari it is possible to take an additional tour on board the ship with an additional cost of 10 euros to be paid on board.
- Isola Vulcano - A few hundred meters south of Lipari is the suggestive island of Vulcano, the last stop on our tour at approximately 1:45 hours
According to Greek mythology, the forges of Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire, were located here.
The reason is obvious: fumaroles and jets of steam can be observed at the top of the active Fossa volcano and under the sea water.
Vulcano creates a particular, almost ancestral relationship between the island and the visitor. The island is the ideal place for trekking lovers, who will be able to reach the top of the crater to enjoy a priceless landscape (weather permitting!).
