Named "World Heritage" by UNESCO, the Aeolian Islands are a magical place, full of natural beauty and culture. Immersed in a crystalline sea, they are an ideal destination for those who love to travel by boat.
The archipelago consists of seven islands, all close together, allowing you to move from one island to another with relatively short voyages. The islands are all very different, so it will be how to make seven trips in one.
Finally, the typical Sicilian quality of food and wine, complete a unique and unrepeatable experience.
Following our summer travel itinerary, 2016, in this book you will find useful information for navigating between the islands without missing the most interesting sites, both on land and at sea.
This is not a commercial tourist guide. The spirit that animates us is to tell you about this wonderful place from our point of view, as if we met at the pier the day before your departure to the islands.
Alongside the purely tourist information, as lover of the sea, I have included all the information useful to navigate like what are the best places to stay in the harbor, where you can swim or where it is best to position themselves in the various ports. Information I have always found missing in the more technical guides such as pilot books.
The wonderful thing is that the Aeolian never repeat. You could sail for years between these islands and discover new things. I sail in these seas ever since I was a child and I always surprise.
With the help of this book you can plan your trip, share with your companions the itinerary and the things you want to see (or eat) the Aeolian.
Welcome to the house of the God Aeolus, welcome in my seas!
