The Aeolian Islands
These pictures were taken to, from and at the Aeolian Islands.
Everybody should go to these islands at least once. I’ve been twice, firstly in June 2007 and then again in the same month this year.
Each island has their own character; Panarea is small and swish, Salina is more agricultural, Stromboli is dominated by the volcano and Lipari is a bustling town as befits the capital.
Getting there though means a four hour trip in a hydrofoil!
Like Naples, the Aeolian Islands are a World Heritage Site.

I’ve been to the islands a few times. Always want to go back. Once got stuck there a few extra days because the winds were too strong for the ferry. I came across your blog while searching for info on the Aeolian Islands and find myself going through the “tree” in random fashion and enjoying it very much.
