Overview

Explore the volcanic islands of Panarea and Stromboli in the UNESCO-listed Aeolian Archipelago, on a day trip from Taormina. After traveling by motorboat to each island (please note that there will be other groups on board of the motorboat), enjoy free time to swim in their crystalline waters or amble around their villages. Cruise around Stromboli to see the island’s volcano at its bombastic best. A crater called Sciara del Fuoco is easily visible from the water, so look out for its frequent jet-like eruptions lighting up the night sky!
A penalty will be incurred in case of a no-show. The motorboat is equipped with bar and toilets. It is absolutely forbidden to consume takeaway food and/or drinks on board. Toilets are not accessible near the ports and therefore their use is permitted exclusively during navigation. Smoking is prohibited inside and outside our motor ships (there is an exception at the stern, in the embarkation and disembarkation area, authorized by our on-board staff).

This was an excellent trip in excellent weather. Both islands are well worth a visit. Panarea is more beautiful but Stromboli more spectacular. Bar Carola on Panarea was very good for lunch. Catering less exciting on Stromboli at least on our assessment. The boat was busy so an on deck seat is not guaranteed. The SAT guide was fine but not always necessary. The website suggests this trip starts at 1030 in October and lasts 10 hours. It didn’t! It really started at 1100 and finished at 2130. If you are driving to Milazzo, it’s well worth booking parking. Garage Mylae is handy and they do really good service.

There is not enough room to write how good this experience was. Just do it- but- read numerous reviews and itinerary description first, then you'll have a great day. Those who have a negative experience must not have fully understood as all info needed is provided by both the tour Co and previous guests. We would not have seen any of this on our own. We enjoyed the views of the countryside from the bus ride, the breeze and views from the boat ride and, the spectacular show the volcano put on at night. Alessandra was our guide- she was very friendly and spoke several languages fluently. The boat captain is a master in his field- he took us within inches of a cave/rock formation and ensured all could see each thing regardless of your seat/side on the boat. The black sand beach was cool to see too as we are used to snow white powder sand in Florida. There is not alot to do at the islands but walk a lil, grab a bite and maybe a souvenir- they are both small, the island hosts were very welcoming too. The Mediterranean Sea boat ride and Volcano were my favorites and were a once in life experience.

Elena explaining the tour on beforehand and Alexandra guiding the tour were excellent. Althougj the sea trip was rough but moments, the absolute highlight was the night view of Stromboli.

Both islands were beautiful and approaching from the boat made them not dramatic. Without doubt, the best part was being able to experience the eruptions on Stromboli.
