Rinella is the epitome of a small port village; little activity resides away from the port other than a local shop and a restaurant serving classic Italian cuisine. Very few forms of accommodation are prominent, as a result nearly everyone who visits the village only does so on the way to a more appealing holiday destination. The small size of Rinella doesn’t adhere to many attractions, however the beach offers a couple of decent swimming spots that are usually fairly empty.
Whilst waiting around the port, the incredible mountainside is the perfect setting to enjoy the fine weather and peaceful atmosphere. The locals will point you in the direction of the ferry terminal and the staff are typically very welcoming and friendly to the passengers.
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.
