At 4.00pm on the journey to Stromboli,we can admire isletts scattered on the sea, then the stately one smoking in the distance -stromboli-, where, from the abysses of the tyrrhenian sea it rose in a symphony of colours. The massive structure of the volcano, from the slender slopes that stand out in a sky of sapphire. On the oriental slopes, covered by a mantle of green, they stand out clean and coquettish, typical white cottages, which, seen from high up, give the vague feeling of a sworm and candid butterflies playng on an emerald green lawn. On arriving at about 4.30pm there will be a guided visit, and then swimming in the blue and uncontaminated water.

Departure from stromboli at about 08.15pm . One mile from stromboli, rising from the sea appears a mastodontic rock, which has the form of a medioevo castle, this rock is known as Strombolicchio. Encircled by enormous rocky walls, falling vertically down to the sea, the tall tower-like castle seems grotesque. The islet represent a volcanic neck. Observed sideways, with its imposing massive structure, and with its enormous size, it offers a very strange and imponent sight. Even so, the cliff will not discourage the man who wants to try to conquer the peak, despite its semblance of an inaccessable rampart; in fact, a good stair case was built, with more than 2oo steps chiseled in the hard stone, and a vast terrace dominated by a light-house.

After a trip around the island, we will halt at large, so as to admire the "sciara di fuoco" (eruption of the vulcano) Arrival oliveri at about 10.15 pm. Arrival portorosa at about 10.30pm.
