2-day Tour – Lipari, Panarea, Stromboli

Explore the wonders of the Aeolian Islands with a 2-day, 1-night tour of Lipari, Panarea and Stromboli

Welcome to the enchanting world of the Aeolian Islands, where breathtaking views and the magic of adventure await you! If you dream of discovering the natural beauty of Lipari, Panarea and Stromboli, we have the perfect tour for you.

Our 2-day, 1-night tour will take you through three of the most fascinating islands of the Aeolian archipelago.

DAY 1:

Your 2-day tour of Lipari, Panarea and Stromboli will start with your autonomous arrival in Lipari. Check-in is available from 1 pm, but the hotel offers you the option of leaving your luggage earlier.

Around 1.30 pm – Departure from the port of Lipari Marina Corta to reach Panarea Island. Starting by skirting Monterosa, you will be able to admire the island of Lipari from the sea. As you approach Panarea, you will admire Calajunco Bay and Cala Zimmari. The panoramic tour will continue among the islets (Basiluzzo, Spinazzola, Lisca Bianca, Dattilo, Bottaro, Lisca) until you reach the port of Panarea, where you will disembark the boat to visit the island by yourself.

What to see on Panarea Island

• The prehistoric village of Punta Milazzese dates back to the Middle Bronze Age (1500-1300 BC). It can be reached on foot in about 45 minutes or by Panarea’s typical electric taxis.
• Cala Zimmari, a secluded bay nestled among the rocks. With its crystal-clear waters and characteristic red sand, this corner of paradise will provide you with moments of absolute relaxation and serenity.
• Cala Junco is one of the most beautiful inlets in the Aeolian archipelago. Here, you will feel as if you are suspended between sky and sea, surrounded by rocks that give it a peculiar U-shape.

In the afternoon, you will leave Panarea to sail to Stromboli. During the navigation, you will admire the picturesque village of Ginostra, isolated from the rest of the island of Stromboli and accessible only by sea. You will then continue on to Strombolicchio, an islet on which stands a lighthouse that was once used for navigation. Once you arrive at the port of Stromboli, you can disembark for an independent tour of the island.

What to see on Stromboli Island

• Forgia Vecchia beach is a small bay with crystal-clear waters and a relaxing environment.
• Ficogrande beach is an equipped beach ideal for families.
• Church of San Vincenzo, from whose square you can admire a beautiful panoramic view.

The tour of Panarea and Stromboli will end at sunset when the boat passes under the Sciara del Fuoco to let you witness from the sea the evocative spectacle of the eruptions that this ever-active volcano gives us.

Return to the port of Lipari Marina Corta is scheduled at around 10.30 pm.

Overnight stay at the hotel.

DAY 2:

Your 2-day tour of Lipari, Panarea and Stromboli will continue with a visit of Lipari Island.

8.00 am – Breakfast at the hotel. Check-out by 10 am.

Spend the day visiting Lipari Island by yourself.

Stroll through the streets of Lipari and Corso Vittorio Emanuele, dotted with small shops and bars where you can enjoy a refreshing ‘granita‘. Here you can also find characteristic ceramic objects, capers and the characteristic Malvasia liqueur. Explore the Lipari Cathedral, an extraordinary testament to art and history, and the Lipari Castle. Its history dates back to prehistoric times and has seen a succession of civilisations over the centuries. From this fortress overlooking the sea, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the island and the surrounding sea. Finally, don’t forget to make a stop at the Geophysical Observatory, from where you can admire one of the most beautiful views of the island, with a panoramic view of most of the Aeolian Islands.

What to see on Lipari Island

• For the architecture lovers, we recommend the Baroque church of San Giuseppe and the Sanctuary of Maria Santissima della Catena, from whose terrace you can enjoy a panorama that will leave you breathless. For another marvellous view, go to the Quattrocchi viewpoint, from which you can also admire the island of Vulcano.
• If you are an archaeology lover, don’t miss the Luigi Bernabò Brea Aeolian Archaeological Museum, containing artefacts from different eras found during excavations on the Aeolian Islands.
• Not far from Marina Corta, you will find the Piazza Arti e Mestieri, nicknamed ‘Sopra la Terra’ (‘Above the Earth’), which has become a tourist attraction for its murals depicting the inhabitants themselves in glimpses of their everyday life.
• If you want to enjoy relaxing moments by the sea, Lipari has many seaside places. Among the most important are the Spiaggia Bianca and the Spiaggia di Canneto.
• For those who love nightlife, in the summertime, Lipari offers many opportunities, such as concerts, folklore and theatre festivals, as well as many clubs and discos where theme nights are organised.
