ISLAND: LIPARI
EVERYDAY
DEPARTURE: 10:00 AM – RETURN: approx. 1:00 PM
DEPARTURE PORT: Marina Corta – Lipari
Departing from the port of Marina Corta, the beating heart of Lipari, we set course toward the Monterosa area, from which there is a splendid panoramic view of the historic center and the bay in front of it. Navigation then continues toward the bright district of Canneto, renowned for its elegant seafront promenade and long, well-equipped beach, particularly appreciated for the clarity of its waters and its lively seaside atmosphere.
We then proceed to Papesca Beach and the famous Pumice Quarries, where a first swimming stop is scheduled. Along this stretch of coastline, the white seabed and pumice cliffs give the sea extraordinarily clear turquoise hues, creating one of the most iconic landscapes of the entire Aeolian archipelago.
Resuming navigation, we head toward Spiaggia dei Gabbiani, a wild and silent cove, then skirt the village of Acquacalda, located at the foot of the island’s northern hills, until reaching the promontory of Legno Nero. From here, we cruise along the entire western side of the island, characterized by high rocky cliffs and spectacular volcanic stratifications, reaching the Grotta dei Pirati, the nearby Grotta Azzurra—famous for its evocative light reflections—and the Torricelle sea stacks.
We then dock in the quiet inlet of Cala Fico, where another swimming stop is planned, ideal for closely admiring the unspoiled nature of this part of the island. After this refreshing break, the tour continues toward Pietra del Bagno and the beautiful Valle Muria Beach, framed by the famous sea stacks of Pietra Lunga and Pietra Menalda—two natural monuments rising majestically from the sea.
This is followed by a passage near the evocative Grotta degli Angeli and then arrival at the intimate and charming Spiaggia Vinci, where a further swimming stop is scheduled, offering privileged views of Lipari’s sea stacks and the nearby outline of Vulcano.
Finally, navigation resumes toward Scoglio della Secca, Praia Ferrante, and the characteristic small beach of Porto delle Genti—a place rich in history that once served as a landing point for local trade. From here, we return to the port of Marina Corta, concluding a complete tour of the island of Lipari through its most evocative and fascinating corners.
The program may be subject to change due to adverse weather and sea conditions.
