Aeolian Islands - The Wind Colors

This is archipelago the gods called home: from Hephaestus, who dwelled deep within the bowels of Vulcano, busy forging weapons for his fellow deities, to Aeolus, who welcomed Ulysses into his court. Today the echoes of these mythological events still resound through the islands, blending with the superbly seductive waters of the sea, the inviting little coves, the colourful houses, the remains of ancient civilisations, the heady fragrance of aromatic plants, the flavours of the exquisite local cuisine, and welcoming millions of tourists every year. And these visitors are truly spoilt for choice: from the lively, chic Panarea, which in the summer takes on a whole new look thanks to the sailing boats and yachts that head here to sail amid the brilliant blue waves, to the largest and most populous of the islands, Lipari, or Alicudi and Filicudi, tucked away far from the more popular tourist routes, where visitors can enjoy peace and quiet as well as uniquely spectacular views.For those wishing to dive in a wonderful sea and go for nice walks or hiking in the green of the country, they can make their choice among Vulcano, Salina, Stromboli and Lipari itself.
All this and more await you on the Aeolian islands, and the "seven sisters" will do their best to seduce you into returning to them to experience further unforgettable emotions.
