Details
Come aboard our boat and join us for this boat trip to Panarea and Stromboli at sunset! Our adventure begins at midday in the Milazzo harbour, from where we will head to our first stop: Panarea. Along the way, our staff will be happy to give you advice on what to see on the respective islands, where you will have 2.5 hours each to visit them.
This island is the smallest of the archipelago, but also the most charming, with its old town painted in blue and white and picturesque alleyways. Here, we suggest you take a dip in the crystal-clear water of Cala degli Zimmari or visit the prehistoric village of Capo Milazzese.
Next stop is Stromboli, one of the most active volcanoes in the world! However, the highlight of our trip will be at dusk, when the colour of the eruption fire contrasts with the lights of the sunset. At the end of our adventure, we will return to the port of Milazzo.

Good morning, I'm Francesco. I'm Sicilian, but for work I live in Friuli. I recommend wearing a hat for the wind, and sunscreen. It's an unforgettable experience. Words can't explain the emotion, nor photos, of the sunset and the simultaneous eruption of Stromboli, with a sliver of moonlight. And I repeat, before this, I lived in Sicily for 44 years, just a stone's throw from Cefalù, so still on the Tyrrhenian Sea. I'd seen a similar sunset 100 times, but I hadn't enjoyed it like this on a boat trip around the erupting volcano of Stromboli.
