Stromboli is a magic island. Earth, fire and water are the soul of "Iddu", sicilian term for "Him", the Good Giant that succeeds in making love himself giving unique shows like the the "Sciara di Fuoco". When it goes down the evening, there is always a shine of light that originates from the fire of the lava castings that are channeled in a wide steep basin going to melt with the sea. The inhabitants of Stromboli populate the eastern coastal centers of St. Bartolo and San Vincenzo,
but the most known is the little village of Ginostra, a small world non attainable from earth, connected with the rest of the archipelago only by sea. Less than a mile to the NE from the island of Stromboli, there is one of the most ancient volcanic demonstrations of the Eolian Islands, the islet of Strombolicchio, with an important sea lighthouse fed by solar energy.
Stromboli is the ideal destination for whose who desires to enjoy unique holidays in boat or wants to live the emotion to climb one of the most ijmportant and suggestive craters in the world, safely accompanied by authorized guides. |
