About this tour
Spend seven hours exploring Lipari and Salina by private boat, navigating volcanic shorelines and crystalline waters across two Aeolian islands. You'll visit Lingua's salt ponds and Santa Marina on Salina, then sweep around Pollara's dramatic cliffs whilst your German or Italian-speaking captain shares local knowledge. Snorkel in sheltered bays among pumice formations, with prosecco and fresh fruit provided throughout.

What to expect
Your seven-hour journey combines active exploration with leisurely swimming. The captain navigates between two islands, timing stops so you can snorkel in calm bays and wade ashore at working villages like Lingua and Santa Marina. Expect to spend roughly half the day in the water, half travelling between viewpoints. The boat moves at a gentle pace, allowing you to photograph volcanic formations and spot local marine life. Bring sun protection—there's minimal shade on deck.
