Discover the wonders of the Aeolian Islands on an extraordinary mini-cruise to Alicudi, Filicudi, and Salina, departing from Capo d’Orlando. Prepare for an unforgettable adventure amidst pristine nature, stunning beaches, and enchanting sites that will leave you in awe.

Departure from the port of Capo d’Orlando is at 9.00 am, heading to Alicudi, the westernmost island of the archipelago, untouched by mass tourism. Here, you’ll have time to explore the island independently, enjoying its wild nature and tranquillity.

What to see on Alicudi Island

• San Bartolo: Located about 330 meters above the port, where you can breathe fresh, clean air and enjoy a splendid view of the boundless sea.
• Contrada Tonna: A small cluster of rural houses representing authentic Aeolian architecture, with dry stone walls and stepped paths.

Back on board, you’ll set sail for Filicudi, an island that remains distant from modernity and the hustle and bustle of civilization. The port area is the island’s nerve center, where you can find small businesses.

What to see on Filicudi Island

• Prehistoric village of Capo Graziano: Discover remnants of a thriving Neolithic industry and obsidian processing, as well as ancient Millstone Quarries. The trek to the top is worth the effort for the incredible views!
• Aeolian Archaeological Museum of Lipari: Located in Porto, where you can see artefacts from the Neolithic village of Capo Graziano and finds from shipwrecks around the island.

Finally, you will sail to Salina, known as the “garden of the Aeolian Islands” for its fertility. Here, valuable grapes are grown for Malvasia wine, and the famous Salina capers are exported worldwide. Upon landing at Santa Marina di Salina, you’ll have time to explore the island independently. Santa Marina is at the foot of Fossa delle Felci, the highest peak in the archipelago, also known as the “Roof of the Aeolian Islands,” featuring an enormous crater covered in lush vegetation. Santa Marina is the island’s busiest spot, with shops perfect for buying beautiful souvenirs and local eateries where you can taste island specialties.
