Panarea and Stromboli Tour (from Lipari)

The boat tour of Panarea and Stromboli departing from the port of Lipari is perfect for admiring all the islets surrounding these two pearls of the Aeolian archipelago.

Departing from the port of Lipari Marina Corta between 1.00 p.m. and 2.00 p.m. to reach the island of Panarea, you will sail along Monterosa, having the opportunity to admire Lipari Island 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. Here, at the captain’s discretion and weather and sea conditions permitting, it will be possible to dive from the boat. 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.

The return to the port of Lipari is scheduled between 10.00 p.m. and 10.30 p.m.
