It’s rare for an island adorning an active volcano to elevate into such a prominent holiday destination, but the languid pace and enigmatic allure prove too tempting for many who visit Italy’s smaller islands. Much of the island has been blackened from the constant stream of volcanic eruptions, however, the north-eastern region of Stromboli remains untouched, remaining fully inhabited throughout the centuries and demonstrates the appeal emanating from the charming cafes and welcoming restaurants. The limited inhabitable villages mean that is only plausible to visit for a day or two, though the friendly, warm atmosphere flowing around the colourful buildings evinces love at first sight for most visitors. Whilst in the northern corner, it is almost compulsory to visit the black beaches that decorate the coastline, curling elegantly around the rugged landscape. As beautiful as the island may appear, bear in mind the practical difficulties; there is no original water supply and electricity is in short supply.
It is only a kilometre from one side of the island to another, so the primary option for transport is on two feet.
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.
