As you’re cruising the Sicilian hot spots, don’t miss a visit to one of the two most famous volcanoes in the Mediterranean. Standing on the east coast of the island, Etna is the largest active volcano in Europe, standing 3329 metres tall and recording eruptions for the past 3,500 years.
The Stromboli volcano takes its name from the island it occupies. Recording heights of 924 metres, this mount has been recording eruptions for the last 2000 years. Nicknamed the “Lighthouse of the Mediterranean”, the island makes for a fantastic anchorage point, displaying all its natural splendours at night as you’re cosily huddled on the safety of your sea craft.
