Stromboli

The Island of Fire and Emotions
Welcome to Stromboli, the island home to one of the world´s most active volcanoes, a fiery giant that offers unforgettable emotions with its regular eruptions. Arriving on Stromboli, with its conical shape rising out of the sea, is already an awe-inspiring experience.

Stromboli´s eruptive activity, known as "Strombolian activity," consists of regular explosions of lapilli and ash, a natural fireworks display that enchants visitors. A nighttime hike to the Sciara del Fuoco, the slope where the incandescent lapilli roll, is an experience not to be missed, a direct contact with the Earth´s primordial force.

Stromboli is more than just a volcano. The island also offers black sand beaches, crystal-clear sea, and two small villages, Ginostra and Stromboli, characterized by whitewashed houses and a tranquil, authentic atmosphere. Ginostra, accessible only by sea, is a jewel of peace and isolation.
