Beach description
The island of Lipari is located in the north of Sicily and can be reached only by sea - by ferry or boat. Sea transport departs from many cities in Sicily, when the swimming season begins. From Italy itself it is possible to get here by boarding a launch in the port of Naples.
Among the beaches of the island, Marina Lunga beach stands out, which has no drops of depth and is perfect for families with small children. It is covered with soft sand, which adds comfort. Those, who appreciate shingly beaches more, have the opportunity to choose another place of rest, equipped on stone platforms - there are enough of them on the island.
Of the most important sights of Lipari, Stromboli volcano, which is active, is definitely distinguished. Those, who care about history, should definitely visit the Episcopal Palace, where the Archaeological Museum is now located. Its artifacts are considered to be the most interesting and unique in all of Italy. But those, who love nature, walks and hikes more, should visit the village of Canetto, look at the quarries, where pumice is mined to this day, and also enjoy chic views and unusual natural objects.
When is it better to go
In terms of climate, the period from May to October is the most favorable for visiting Italy. The air and water temperature becomes ideal for a classic beach holiday, followed by a trip to the coast of Italy. However, it is necessary to remember that a long summer with the scorching sun, warm sea and pleasant sea breeze attracts crowds of tourists.
