| | The seven islands have often been the stage of many dramatic events, both natural (eruptions, earthquakes) and political; they have indeed been the stage of several naval battles, due to the fact that they offer good harbours to any kinds of boats. | | | Beautiful views are to be seen by sailing round the island, which is separated from Salina by just a 4 Km stretch of sea. | | | Because of their geological nature it has been supposed that internal earth movements caused by long past explosions broke their original unity. |

| | The <b>Aeolianb> Islands (Isole Eolie o Lipari) have been inhabited for more than 3,000 years, in spite of volcanic activity that even now causes the earth to issue forth sulfuric belches, streams of molten lava, and hissing clouds of steam. | | | Until tourists began to arrive, the <b>Aeolianb> Islands were one tough place to make a living. | | | Because of frequent ferry and hydrofoil service, the <b>Aeolianb> Islands are easy to reach from the Sicilian mainland. |

| | Mediterraneo Tour Operator: <b>Aeolianb> islands |
| | The <b>Aeolianb> islands, starting in remote times, were colonised by Neolitic peoples interested in exploiting obsidian, an insuperable material for making carving tools. | | | On the routes of the mythical Ausonians and Cnydian sailors north-east of the Sicilian coasts, whipped by a salty wind, the <b>Aeolianb> archipelago spreads out, like a fan, its seven isles which, because of their explosive volcanic nature, are sisters of the Hawaiian islands, the pearls of the Pacific. | | | Later, in the Roman epoch, the archipelago prospered with the sulphur, alum and salt trade, which however gradually declined, until the islands were abandoned. |

| | The Aeolians are easily reached by ferries and hydrofoils from Milazzo (in north east Sicily and whose history is inextricably linked to that of the islands), Palermo, Messina and Naples. | | | The islands around Sicily are split into three island groups (the Aeolians, the Egadi and the Pelagie) and two strays (Ustica and Pantelleria). | | | Pantelleria is reached by sea or by air from Sicily and by air from the Italian mainland. |
