Details
Our boat trip to Lipari, Panarea and Stromboli is the perfect opportunity to discover enchanting places in the beautiful setting of the Aeolian Islands. A continuous mix of nature and culture will make your experience with us unforgettable.
Once departing from Tropea, our first stop will be Lipari, the largest island of the archipelago. Here you will find numerous local shops and typical restaurants, which you can visit along with the island's other attractions during our stop of about 2 hours and a half. We recommend a visit to the Basilica of San Bartolomeo, the Castle and the Archaeological Museum. Not to be missed is a swim at the beautiful Canneto Beach, that you should preferably reach by public transports. We will then head for the trendy and wonderful Panarea, where we will stay for about 2 hours and a half. We recommend a visit to the small church of San Pietro and the ancient village of Capo Malattese. A swim in the famous beach of Cala Junco is a must, which we suggest you reach by public transports, as it is about a 45-minute walk from the centre.
The last stop of our mini-cruise will be Stromboli, where we will visit the active volcano and the unique black sand beaches. You will have the opportunity to explore the picturesque village of San Vincenzo, where you will find more narrow streets full of restaurants and small shops. Before returning to the port of Tropea, we will have a final half-hour stop to admire the 'sciara di fuoco', Stromboli's impressive volcanic activity, at sunset.
