I went on holiday to Lipari with my girlfriend a few years ago, you can get there by boat from Sicily and it's incredibly relaxing once you get there. There's a few charming hotels, the weather is fantastic and you can take a boat to the neighbouring islands for lunch.

Write a review on Lipari
Overview Just north-west of Sicily lie the Aeolian Islands, the largest
of which, Lipari, has become a popular holiday destination with a
concentration of tourist facilities in its main town. The town of
Lipari is dominated by a cliff-top citadel, built in the 1500s, and
buffered by two beaches, the Marina Lunga on which the harbour is
sited, and the Marina Corta. Lipari, with its hotels, restaurants
and bars, makes a good holiday base for exploring the other islands
of the archipelago, including Salina, Filicudi, Stromboli, Panarea
and Vulcano, all of which offer beautiful scenery, volcanoes,
castles, thermal resorts, watersports, fishing and some lovely
volcanic-black beaches. Most visitors get to the Aeolian Islands by
ferry from Milazzo, in Sicily, but the more glamorous arrive on
yachts.
