The team from the rental place is super helpfull and friendly. For these small boats you don’t need a license although having some experience is required to make you feel at ease on the water. From the little port there are two amazing spots where you can anker and they’re easily assessable. It’s only a 20 minute boat ride. The short distance to the port makes this a great location if you want to privately spend a day on the water. Will definitely book again!

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.
Stromboli, Panarea und Salina sind wichtige Ziele. Ein Start von Palermo mit Stadtbesichtigung vor und nach dem Segeltörn sind empfehlenswert. Ebenso die entspannte und günstige Anreise mit dem (neuen) Zug nach Capo d‘Orlando ist zu empfehlen. Per Taxi oder Shuttle würde man pro Fahrt bis zu 400€ zahlen. Mit der Bahn sind es nur 14€ pro Person. Es gibt sogar Taxis die mit dem Hafen kooperieren und Segler für 5€/Person dann vom und zum Hafen bringen.

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.
C'est la quatrième fois que nous naviguons dans les îles Éoliennes et c'est toujours un grand plaisir même si on aimerait avoir un peu plus de vent.

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.
