During this week's cruise, here are the four islands you'll be discovering:
- Stromboli, nicknamed the "Lighthouse of the Mediterranean". It gets its nickname from its volcano. In fact, the volcano is always active. Anecdotally, this comparison was born of its lava eruptions that light up the night sky. also, according to Greek mythology, Aeolus, the guardian of the winds, lived on the island, and it was his wrath that unleashed the volcanic eruptions.
- Vulcano, the island of impressive geothermal activity. From the catamaran, you'll be able to catch a glimpse of the "fumarole" - steam, gas and sulfur escaping from the La Fossa crater. Of course, on the island of Vulcano, you'll find hot springs and black sand beaches.
- Lipari, the most famous of the Aeolian islands. Here, you'll find colorful facades, a castle on the water's edge, and religious buildings steeped in history and culture... And don't forget to sample the local cuisine.
- Salina, the green island of the Aeolian Islands. with its great fertility, vineyards and citrus fruits, Salina knows how to give travelers a change of scenery. On the island, we recommend tasting the famous "Malvasia delle Lipari" sweet wine, not forgetting the internationally renowned "Salina capers" - we'll let you taste, your taste buds will be delighted!
