Filicudi

Filicudi is the western Aeolian — quieter than Lipari and less famous than Stromboli, only 9.5 square kilometres in size and home to about 250 year-round residents. The island is a dormant volcanic cone with the central Fossa Felci peak at 773 metres and seven smaller secondary cones around the coast. There are two harbours — Filicudi Porto on the east, Pecorini Mare on the southwest — connected by a single 4-kilometre road. The west coast holds the Grotta del Bue Marino, a sea cave with blue-light reflection, and the La Canna volcanic stack rising 71 metres from the sea. Filicudi is 90 minutes from Salina and 3 hours from Lipari. Season runs April through October.

Recommended duration: ideal for 1 days
