Yacht Charter Aeolian Islands

The biggest one in the archipelago, Lipari is just sensational. Pay a visit to the Archeological museum - hosting the world’s largest collection of Greek miniature masks and countless Roman amphorae, among other things. Walk along the Cava di Pomice, retracing the importance of the island’s geological heritage, the extraction of pumice stone recorded ever since the 13th century. Enjoy its wild, rocky coast from one of our yachts, go in search of secluded coves and then explore the delicious restaurants, serving the freshest fish you can think of. Walk in the town centre to enjoy its laidback atmosphere and then relax on board our plush vessels, wishing upon a star.

Day 2 - Saline

Stretching to the west of the archipelago, Filicudi and Alicudi reveal their layers of magic through their history, the beauty of their seabeds and their silent splendour. Remote and somewhat undeveloped, transport on Alicudi happens via mules and modern life seems oh-so distant. Filicudi is perfect for hikers, who will love its rugged coastline and the many paths: admire it from our boats and start dreaming.

Aptly named after the god of fire, Vulcano is dominated by its large crater. Indeed, hike up the Gran Cratere for stunning views of the entire archipelago: the beauty of the Aeolian Islands lie in front of you in a picture-postcard frame. Time it at dusk for that extra layer of magic. Although the last eruption on the island dates back to the late 19th century, you can still experience fumaroles (exhalations of hot vapour containing mostly sulphur) and walk amid them. Then relax in the mud baths in Pozza dei Fanghi do not use your favourite swimsuit though or sunbathe on the black sand beaches in the north: blessed with faraglioni jutting out of the waters, the place is dreamlike. Capo Grillo is where you’ll want to be to enjoy majestic views of the islands, while Gelso, to the south, is a small but perfect port that hides some lovely beaches: Spiaggia dell’Asino and Campitello, surrounded by tropical greenery, are a must. Like everywhere on the archipelago, diving is a star sport here: explore the deep, pristine waters and you will fully perceive the allure of the sea.

Flamboyant, luxurious and glitzy, Panarea has it all. Not only is it the home of the well-heeled and beautiful, it is also rich in history and natural beauties. Cala Junco is one of them, then Cala Zimmari, the only sandy beach on the island – pure joy – but also the Capo Milazzese prehistoric village: easily reached from the Ditella harbour, it dates back to the 15th c. BC and sits dramatically on an elevated headland that jets on to the sea. To the north-east lies Basiluzzo island, sometimes called the Eighth Aeolian sister: explore the small island and revel in its lovely silence, listen to the caress of the wind and sense the luxury of precious, exclusive moments. Hike to Punta del Corvo, Panarea’s highest point, and enjoy sweeping views of the entire archipelago, or swim at Cala Junco beach: its aquamarine watersand its amphitheatre shape will stun you. Have a dip in its hot springs; located close to San Pietro, these 50°C spa waters are employed for a therapeutic use. Beyond the exploring and gazing in awe, feel the soul of the island with a swanky aperitivo: this is where people come to see and be seen, and you’ll want to be part of it.
