Unesco World's Heritage:
The 7 Eolian islands (Lipari, Vulcano, Salina, Panarea, Stromboli, Filicudi, Alicudi) meanwhile belonging to the Unesco World's Heritage didn't loose their naturalness. Except the month of August you don't find mass-tourism. Lipari Island has got about 8000 inhabitants and Lipari town is of course always the lively and cultural heart of all the islands.
But there is still the quiet and nearly unsettled Lipari where you can feel united with nature. The hot thermal water and the steaming fumaroles let you know the special ambience.
And so is the casa Scirocco which wants to combine naturalness, comfort and hospitality for its guests. For special experiences we recommend guided walking tours (to all the islands) - also at night. Totani-fishing at night or the different boat-trips.
Ecological / Rural Tourism:
The casa Scirocco wants to give the feeling of a soft, natural and rural tourism. The fruits of the organically farmed garden (capers, cucunce - the fruits of the caper's flower - lemons, oranges, apricots, mulberries, olives etc.) can be picked up moderately by the guests as well. If you need special recipes there will be no problem. We have made the experience that our guests feel themselves at home very soon. Casa Glicine and Casa Limone are in the neighbourhood united by the gardens. So it's a perfect situation for the stay of 2 couples or 2 families being friends.
How to get to the islands!:
The quickest way: flight to Catania - rent a car or get the bus to Milazzo - take the ferry-boat (1h) to Lipari // The next quickest way : flight to Palermo - take the bus to the port - take the ferry-boat (3.5h) to Lipari // or flight to Palermo - take the bus or train to the main station of Palermo (1h) - get the train to Milazzo (3h) - take the ferry-boat (1h) to Lipari // another possibility : flight to Naples - night ferry-boat (12 - 14h) to Lipari or the quick ferry-boat(6h) to Lipari. In any case: travelling to the Eolian islands should be already part of the holidays. Especially travelling in Sicily: from Catania or Palermo to Milazzo - where the boats go to Lipari - is like a sightseeing-tour. If you need any help to plan your trip please contact us.
