The Aeolian Regional Archaeological Museum “Luigi Bernabò Brea” is in the castle complex that dominates the island of Lipari. The museum is named after Luigi Bernabò Brea, the great Sicilian archaeologist. It contains archaeological finds from the excavations in the territory of the Aeolian islands by archaeologists Luigi Bernabò Brea and Madeleine Cavalier.
The port of San Pietro is a picturesque cobweb of white streets and is home to most of the island’s restaurants, bars, and shops. In Panarea there are also enchanting coves and, in the southernmost point of the island, Cala Junco with transparent and crystalline waters is probably the most beautiful bay of all the Aeolian Islands. Just off the east coast of Panarea: Dattilo, Lisca Bianca, Basiluzzo, Lisca Nera and Bottaro, and the turquoise sea all around are excellent for snorkeling and scuba diving.
Stromboli is the most beautiful. It is an island with a volcano in a constant state of mild activity, punctuated by occasional larger and more violent eruptions. Although small eruptions of lava are not dangerous, one must still be aware of the possible danger. Therefore, you should never climb the volcano without a local expert guide. Onboard our boat, you can safely watch the most incredible and unforgettable spectacle of the erupting Stromboli from the sea.
