This experience, in a nutshell

Which holiday is more in the name of nature than this one?

THURSDAY - Portorosa
Check-in from 8 pm.
The boat is moored in the port of Portorosa located near the town of Furnari (ME) , reachable from Catania airport by car - via the motorway - or by train.

FRIDAY - Lipari
Purchase and boarding of the galley, bow on Lipari (about four hours of navigation). Lipari is the largest island of the Aeolian Islands and here trekking or biking enthusiasts can reach observation points from which to enjoy views of rare beauty , making excursions to the hilly hamlets, and then climbing Monte S. Angelo , and visiting the quarries. of "kaolin" .
There is also the possibility of making the circumnavigation of the island, arriving as far as Porto Pignataro , a place where we will spend the night, located in the opposite direction to that of departure.
For those who love history , Lipari also has a museum of extraordinary interest, full of finds that testify that since prehistoric times the island and the entire archipelago were inhabited by primitive peoples, often at war for the conquest of precious territories rich in raw materials to be marketed.

SATURDAY - Salina
After a coastal navigation, we will arrive in Salina . Here off-road enthusiasts , on bikes, can climb the mountain "Fossa delle Felci" a slope that reaches almost 1,000 meters. The ascent takes place on a path surrounded by ferns and lush woods. At the top an incredible panorama awaits you : the entire archipelago of the Aeolian Islands, nestled between sky and sea.

SUNDAY - Vulcano
Last stop, we will reach the island of Vulcano . Here the ascent to the crater (not particularly demanding), the visit of the Levante bay , characterized by sulphurous waters and black sands, a large bay made up of very thin black sand of volcanic nature, will be of considerable interest.
We leave in the afternoon, three hours to reach Portorosa , check-out at 20.

Ah! I forgot ... those wishing to find on site the bikes for the excursions planned both in Lipari and in Salina there is the possibility of renting directly on board .

I would highly recommend this trip and Nicola as a skipper. It was amazing trip, visiting the different aeolian islands, which are all beautiful. We had plenty of time to stop for swimming and visiting the islands. The skippers local knowledge of the area and local sites to visit, restaurants and beauty spots made the trip unforgettable. The boat was kept in immaculate condition and his partner also cooked some amazing food for us on the trip. I would be very happy to join another trip with them in the future and I would highly recommend it.

E' stata una settimana indimenticabile a bordo della Iaia. Anche se ci sono proposte di vacanze con barche più recenti, non fatevi ingannare dall'apparenza. La Iaia ha dei comfort che non sono scontate sulle imbarcazioni e a bordo ti senti veramente a casa. Le Eolie sono una meta che consiglierei a tutti, è una vacanza rilassante che ti porta dalle calette e da paesaggi naturalistici mozzafiato ad assistere all'eruttazione dello Stromboli navigando sotto un cielo stellato. Nicola è un ottimo skipper e di lunga esperienza e ci ha fatto sentire veramente sicuri a bordo con lui. Ha soddisfatto ogni nostra curiosità riguardo al luogo e alla navigazione e ci ha fatto apprezzare il mare sotto un altro punto di vista, quello dell'intimità con il luogo e le sue bellezze, cosa che non si coglie dalla terraferma. Non solo Nicola è una persona veramente piacevole, ma fa anche delle ottime torte :)
