Alicudi is in a world of its own; you are more likely to travel by mule than by car, and outside of the summer months you’ll be hard pressed to find another tourist wandering the peaceful streets. If you’re looking for vibrant nightlife or a lively shopping scene then you’re best off looking elsewhere, however, if your perfect day involves scaling a colourful and challenging terrain then Alicudi could be the ideal destination. Even if hiking and exploring isn’t your idea of the best way to spend a few days, it requires a fair amount of energy to discover all of Alicudi. The lack of cars, or any real transport, means that most places must be reached on two feet, though on a pleasant summer’s day, that isn’t the worst thing. After a tiring day in the sun, the only hotel on the island has a restaurant serving sumptuous seafood, which can be enjoyed before heading to bed.
Salina is an explorer’s paradise. Freshwater springs, verdant foliage and towering cliffs define the landscape, offering a myriad of naturally inviting colours and contrasts. The mixture of autumnal yellows and dark greens exude a tropical vibe, enhanced by the grape vines that decorate much of the imposing mountainside, winding down into the azure blue water of the Mediterranean Sea. The coastline is dominated by greenery and bushes, yet if you were to head to the centre of the island, the terrain completely changes; two extinct volcanoes mould the island, protecting the outlying villages from extreme modernisation and allowing them to maintain their authenticity. For much of the year the island remains fairly quiet – the streets are sparse and there are always tables free at the restaurants and bars – if they’re even open. Yet when the calendar swings round to the summer months, the island murmurs into a vibrant hub, especially around the port area where many of the hotels and amenities are based. Away from the harbour, Salina still appears disconnected from much of the world - just sit back and enjoy the peace.
There is a regular bus service in operation around the villages, and many roads accessible by cars. Much of the popular areas are compact enough to traverse by foot.
