About this experience
We will board onto our speed boat to the Sciara from where you will enjoy the beautiful eruptions of Stromboli.
We are up to 10 people on the boat and no more so you can find yourself comfortable with social distance between each other.
Stromboli is not only one of the many beautiful islands of the Mediterranea Sea, but it is the only one where volcanic activity takes place unceasingly in front of our very eyes, and where the visitor can see the explosions so it makes sense that the best way to enjoy it is from the sea!
That’s always an amazing experience !
