This experience, in a nutshell

A week on a Lagoon 400 S2 catamaran in the Aeolian Islands is an extraordinary experience that combines adventure, natural beauty, culture and comfort.


Sailing through the Aeolian Islands means being surprised every day by different scenarios: from steaming volcanoes to hidden bays, from black sand beaches to crystal-clear coves, where you can stop for a regenerating dip or simply to admire the view. The catamaran, spacious and stable, allows you to move freely, experience sailing safely and reach otherwise inaccessible corners, enjoying the sea in total relaxation.


Each island tells its own story: ancient cultures, small picturesque villages, local scents and flavors to discover during stops on land. The sea breeze, the intense colors of the sea and the fiery sunsets, the nights under a starry sky away from the lights of the city, create indelible memories and a unique sense of freedom.


This week is more than a cruise: it is an immersion in the natural wonder of the Aeolian Islands, an experience that combines exploration, conviviality and moments of pure relaxation, ideal for those who love the sea, nature and the charm of sailing adventure.

Our itinerary

Our trip starts here:

Lipari (Aeolian).

Check-in: 6:00 PM

Our trip ends here:

Lipari (Aeolian).

Check-out: 9:00 AM

Leg 1

Day 1: Lipari

Our tour to discover the Aeolian Islands starts from Lipari, where from 18:00 on Saturday, our guests can embark at the Eolmare pier at Porto Pignataro. After the assignment of the cabins and after the briefing with the Skipper, everyone goes to the supermarket to make the galley! The first moment to share with the other crew members, an excellent opportunity to get to know each other. In the evening, dinner in a typical restaurant and walk through the streets of the center of Lipari, animated by several outdoor clubs with live music.

Leg 2

Day 2: Panarea

On Sunday morning we cast off, continuing towards Panarea, the most chic of the seven sisters. Once we reach Panarea we will make a stop at Cala Junco, a nature reserve and a splendid setting for a relaxing swim. Lunch on board. In the afternoon, if the mistral breeze allows it, it will be possible to sail again, perhaps circumnavigating the island, and then stop near Dattilo. From here we could witness a breathtaking spectacle: the warm light of the sunset illuminates the islets in front of Panarea (Dattilo, Lisca bianca, Bottaro, Basiluzzo) and its colors mix with the yellow of the sulfur and the dark red of the iron that characterize their rocks. And now everyone on land to walk through the streets of the town, and then meet for an aperitif at the Sushi Bar. Those who want can spend the night in the most famous disco in the Aeolian Islands, the Raya, alternatively, we will spend the night in Baia Milazzese. Night at anchor.

Leg 3

Giorno 3: Stromboli

On Monday morning it will be the turn of Basiluzzo, which with its basalts offers a wonderful setting for a swim and for moments of relaxation. Then we will move to Iddu, one of the most active volcanoes in Europe, the volcano of Stromboli.

We will find ourselves in the roadstead at the foot of S. Vincenzo, a very characteristic place where it is possible to admire the ancient Aeolian style. In the afternoon it will be possible to go ashore to visit the town and go to the Ingrid Bar for an aperitif on a terrace with a splendid view of the sea and Strombolicchio, an islet in front of Stromboli. The evening will continue on the boat, dinner, and then off to admire the spectacle of the

Sciara del fuoco, the side of the island from which you can watch the explosions of the volcano.

Leg 4

Day 4: Salina

Tuesday will be dedicated to Salina, the largest island, after Lipari, of the Aeolian archipelago. In the morning we will head towards Pollara, a bay north-west of Salina, characterized by a high coast overlooking the sea. In these evocative places, Troisi chose to shoot numerous scenes of The Postman. Nearby it is also possible to admire a splendid natural arch. We will stay here for the rest of the morning and after a swim, we will prepare an excellent lunch. Refreshed by the post-lunch relaxation, we will move towards Lingua after half an hour of navigation there we will find one of the best granitas of the Aeolian Islands, that of Alfredo. We advise you to choose the combination of figs and mulberries, perhaps accompanied by cream and brioche. Mouth-watering!

Leg 5

Day 5: Filicudi

On Wednesday morning we will sail to Filicudi, if we are lucky we may meet a pod of dolphins or why not, some sea turtles, not rare encounters in these parts! We will stop near Capo Graziano to fully enjoy the charm of the island. In the afternoon we will move to Pecorini a Mare, a very picturesque fishing village. The time for a swim in front of the village and then on land, for a beer by the sea at the Saloon, perhaps nibbling on some homemade specialties! If lucky, our arrival could coincide with the stop of some fishing boats. In this case it will be possible to buy excellent swordfish for dinner on the boat. Alternatively, it is possible to dine in the only restaurant in the village: La Sirena.

Leg 6

Day 6: Filicudi, Vulcano

On Thursday morning we will stay in Filicudi, but we will move near the Canna, a stack of volcanic origin that rises from the waters several hundred meters from the coast. Here you can stay in the roadstead and enjoy the wonderful emerald water. It will certainly be one of the bathrooms that will remain most impressed on you! In the early afternoon we will sail until we arrive near the stacks of Lipari. Here too the coast is high and overlooking the sea and is a great place to watch the sunset. We will take advantage of the last light of the day to move to Vulcano, in the bay of Ponente. Here we will go down to terrà for an aperitif dancing on the Black Beaches and a walk in the village.

Leg 7

Day 7: Vulcano

On Friday morning we will move to the west side of Vulcano One of the most usual stops is near the Grotta del Cavallo and the pools of Venus. Here the coast is very varied and rich in reddish colors typical of the island of Vulcano. Before returning to the port of Lipari we will have time for a last swim at the beach of Vinci. From here we will be able to admire the crater of Vulcano, with its fumaroles and its intense yellow due to the large concentrations of sulphurous rocks. 5:00 pm, it's time to return to Lipari, before the gas station closes! We will moor again at the pier of Porto Pignataro and spend one last evening together. Last night on the boat, on Saturday morning the disembarkation is scheduled for 9:00 am.

The itinerary may be subject to changes due to weather conditions and/or technical or logistical reasons, in order to ensure safety and a pleasant sailing experience for all participants.

Wonderful Aeolian Islands on a 15 mt sailing boat - Cabins with private bathroom

Our ''trip'' to the Aeolian Islands was wonderful, for the magic of the places, for the unforgettable flavors and for the beautiful sea, with its intense blue that becomes turquoise in the coves, close to the rocks and cyclopean arches. Everything was possible thanks to skipper Angelo, our captain, who guided us with great professionalism, always putting safety first, especially in anchorages and moorings. Attentive to every detail, thoughtful and kind. Able to relate to people with tact, sympathy and intelligence, able to raise the bar of enthusiasm every day with new surprises and new bays. Always ready to set sail, even early in the morning, to have breakfast in a new place. Always available to take us with the tender to visit the beautiful villages of the islands. The boat, (which we found very clean!!) is really beautiful, equipped with all comforts and advanced instrumentation. The cabins are comfortable, with private bathrooms. The large cockpit is a great comfort for the crew. In short... More than passengers, we felt like real welcome guests in his home. And hospitality means many things to Angelo... Things we will never forget. My wife and I recommend this experience to sea lovers, to those who want to travel safely and to those looking for an emotion that goes beyond the charter holiday.

What more can I say besides "what Angelo says he offers is all true: very comfortable boat with everything you need? Yes! An itinerary traveled in serenity and safety? Yes!". But what Angelo did not write, but which gives that extra precious something, really difficult to find in a charter is his thoughtfulness! And not care in the sense of haste, but in the sense of being considerate: to have attention for his guests with respect, with respect, with discretion, without any kind of intrusiveness, with availability! So there is, for example, the aperitif that comes at the right time; or the security of a long and quiet swim, with the certainty that if I need something he is there but I can also be on my own; or the departure/arrival in a roadstead or in a village at the right time, neither too early nor too late. Thank you, Angelo, for these days from which I have been able to make the best of you. Fair winds ⛵

Fantastic experience with Angelo in a very comfortable boat in every sense (cabins, bathrooms, common area, electrical system, watermaker, refrigerators, kitchen etc etc). Angelo is a highly professional skipper, particularly attentive to the safety of navigation and moorings, but also attentive to satisfying the request for exploration of all those coves, landings and islands that a tourist/yachtsman like me expects. Finally, Angelo made us feel "at home", we spent the holiday in an atmosphere of pleasant serenity also pampered by his excellent cuisine.

Very comfortable boat, 5-star cruising but if it unfurls the sails it reveals a regatta grit. A very judicious captain in ensuring the safety as well as the comfort of his crew, but at the same time dynamic and ready to fulfill their wishes: with continuous landings in coves and beaches, visit 7 islands in 5 days of navigation. When the anchor drops, he also turns from skipper (and who expected it?) into a cook on board: delicious dishes of the Mediterranean tradition. Seeing is believing.
