Sicily can be found to the south of Italy and is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea, separated from the mainland by the narrow Strait of Messina. Situated at the meeting point between East and West, Africa and Europe, Sicily is truly at the crossroads of Mediterranean culture and offers much to see, to taste, and to do. With a varied landscape of glistening seas and restless mountains, the scenery creates a dramatic and lasting impression on those who visit. With a host of natural wonders and long warm seasons, Sicily is an attractive year round destination for explorers and vacationers alike. Sicily is a hub for ferry connections with ferry services operated by some of Europe’s biggest ferry companies travelling to and from most of the surrounding islands, ports on the mainland, Malta and North Africa via Tunisia.
The Aeolian Islands or Isole Eolie as they are known locally are group of islands and islets in the Tyrrhenian Sea to the north of Sicily off the coast of Italy. Named after Aelous, the God of the wind by Greek settlers, the Aeolian Islands comprise of Lipari, Vulcano, Salina, Stromboli, Panarea, Filicudi, Alicudi and Basiluzzo. The main island – Lipari, is located more or less towards the center of the group and in addition to featuring numerous hotels is a hub for connections to the other islands. There are no regular air services to the islands; therefore the only way to get in and around is by ferry, with regular services offered between the islands and to/from Sicily and mainland Italy by some of the region’s most popular ferry companies. Like a lot of the Italian islands, the Aeolian group are becoming increasingly popular with tourists and during the summer season the population swells enormously.
