Aeolean Islands, Italy


Description

The Aeolian Islands are a volcanic archipelago in the Tyrrhenian Sea north of Sicily, named after the demigod of the winds Aeolus.

The largest island is Lipari and the islands are sometimes referred to as the Lipari Islands or Lipari group. The other islands include Vulcano, Salina, Stromboli, Filicudi, Alicudi, Panarea and Basiluzzo.

We would take yacht somewhere in proximity of those and hop from island to island, enjoying breathtaking view over volcanoes, swimming in quite bays, tasting Sizilian food.
If it will be possible we would pass the Messina strait and get closer to Aetna. Might be it will smoke.
