We had the best time with Raffaele. He is extremely nice, a very trustworthy captain and went out of his way to ensure we had a great time. His restaurant recommendation was spot on and he was genuinely a pleasure to be around. I will be certainly getting back in touch next time we come to the Eolian Islands! Thank so so much, Raffaele!

I recently had the pleasure of embarking on a boat trip through the breathtaking Aeolian Islands in Sicily, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience. Excellent boat, making the journey both intimate and comfortable. The highlight of the trip was undoubtedly our skipper and helper. Massimo and his Colleague were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to ensure we were all enjoying ourselves. Massimo’s extensive knowledge about the Aeolian Islands was impressive and contagious. Massimo’s expertise in navigation was clear, making the journey feel smooth and secure. His professionalism and experience allowed us to fully relax and soak in the stunning scenery, from the crystal-clear waters to the dramatic cliffs. Overall, this boat trip was a perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and discovery, largely thanks to Massimo. If you’re considering exploring the Aeolian Islands, I highly recommend doing so by boat and with a guide as knowledgeable and kind as ours.

Lipari and Vulcano are beautiful to visit, absolutely better by boat to enjoy beaches that are difficult or inaccessible from land.
Lipari e Vulcano bellissime da visitare assolutamente meglio in barca per poter godere di spiagge difficilmente o non raggiungibili da terra.
