Luxury yacht charter · Sicily · Italy
Seven volcanic islands, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, with sea stacks, sulphurous waters and nights beneath Stromboli. An archipelago you only truly understand from the sea.
Aeolian Islands
The Aeolians are seven islands, each with its own character: glamorous Panarea, Salina green with vineyards, Lipari the largest, Vulcano with its sulphurous waters, Stromboli with its ever-active volcano. They have been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000.
The best way to see them is by boat: distances are short, the most beautiful coves can only be reached from the sea, and in the evening you can stay at anchor off a different island.
Departures are from Milazzo, Portorosa or directly from the islands, depending on the boat. To reach Sicily there are Catania and Palermo airports, with a transfer or helicopter to embarkation.
The itinerary
A sample route: we build it around your days, the weather and what you want to experience.
01
The most glamorous island: Cala Junco between the cliffs, the islets of Lisca Bianca and Basiluzzo, and evenings ashore among the white houses.
02
The pale beaches below the old pumice quarries on Lipari, the sea stacks and the warm, sulphurous waters of Vulcano.
03
Malvasia vineyards on the slopes, Malfa and the bay of Pollara, where the cliff drops straight into the sea.
04
The Sciara del Fuoco seen from the boat at sunset, with Strombolicchio just a few minutes away.
The moment
Evening off the Sciara del Fuoco, when Stromboli lights up over the sea.
When to go
The best season runs from June to September. June and September are quieter, with warm water; in August the islands are at their liveliest, and moorings should be booked early.
Services
A professional crew on every boat. And, on request, everything you need before and after embarkation.
Major events
Cannes, Monaco, the America’s Cup in Naples: from the sea or in the front row.
