Full description
Has visiting the Aeolian Islands always been your dream? Take a day to make it come true!
Set sail from Tropea and sail along the Costa degli Dei on a motorboat to the Aeolian archipelago. Disembark in Lipari, Panarea and Stromboli and get ready to fall in love with their unique atmosphere, between walks in the historic centre and volcanic panoramas to be immortalised.
The highlight of the tour? Definitely the spectacle of the Sciara del Fuoco , which you can admire from the sea!
What we will do
The appointment is 30 minutes before 08:30 at the meeting point in Tropea.
Once we have completed boardingthe motorboat, we will set sail to begin our navigation along the coast of Tropea and Capo Vaticano, nicknamed the Costa degli Dei.
The guide on board will give us some advice on how best to plan our stops on the Aeolian Islands, which we will be able to visit freely once we are ashore.
At 11:00 we will land on theisland of Lipari, where we will stay until 13:15. During the free stopover ashore we can explore the historic centre, the Castle and the Archaeological Museum on foot, or we can use the time available to sample some typical Aeolian cuisine.
Departing from Lipari, we will arrive at the port of San Pietro in Panarea at around 14:00 and stop here until 15:30. The stop on the most glamorous island of the Aeolian Islands will allow us to get a taste of its atmosphere, which we will be able to grasp by visiting the village and getting lost among the typical shops.
Around 16:15 we will reach Stromboli and disembark for a 3-hour stopover, during which we can freely visit the village of San Vincenzo, take a walk on the black sand beach or a swim in the cobalt blue waters.
We will re-board the motorboat around 19:15 to sail along Strombolicchio and the coast of the island. We will arrive in front of the Sciara del Fuoco and make a 30-minute stop to admire thenight-time eruption of the active volcano from the comfort of the boat. After witnessing this wonderful spectacle, we will begin the return journey.
The return to Tropea is scheduled for around 22:00, for a total duration of about 12 and a half hours.
