Stromboli, Panarea and Salina are important destinations. A start from Palermo with a city tour before and after the sailing trip is recommended. The relaxed and inexpensive journey by (new) train to Capo d'Orlando is also recommended. By taxi or shuttle you would pay up to €400 per trip. By train it is only €14 per person. There are even taxis that cooperate with the port and take sailors to and from the port for €5 per person.

This is the fourth time we have sailed in the Aeolian Islands and it is always a great pleasure even if we would like to have a little more wind.

Lovely experience. Took boat for 4 hours. We took a solo boat which meant we drove it. This was nice as it was private. They offered a speaker for music but we had one. Your charged for petrol at end per Km. They track you by GPS so it's exact to what you drive. It worked out at 74 euro which I though was cheaper than expected but we did stop for a while as we found the dolphins so we watched them which was a beautiful experience. 4 hours might be a little too long for some but it was worth the experience

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!

Our boat trip was 10/10 perfect - we couldn't have wished for a better time! We were able to enjoy the beautiful scenery including blue waters and caves, and made several swim stops. Would highly recommend a trip with Salvatore!

Me and my sisters had the most amazing afternoon onboard the Saver 330 boat with our skipper, Carmelo, and host, Roxanne. Carmelo and Roxanne were extremely attentive and made sure that we had the best service and time onboard. They took around around all the main bays and spots around Taormina and gave us a tour and explanation of lots of the history of the area and the coastline. An outstanding memorable experience! Thank you Carmelo and Roxanne!

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.
