Ferry Filicudi

Filicudi is an island of volcanic origin that belongs to the archipelago of the Aeolian Islands, located off the northern coast of Sicily. The name of the island derives from the ancient Greek "Phoinicussa", which means "dwarf palm", a typical plant found on the promontories.

The island is formed by about eight now extinct volcanoes, the largest of which is Mount Fossa delle Felci, which is about 770 meters high. A lush macchia mediterranea, a rich local fauna, a deep blue sea and its famous wrecks invite thousands of visitors every summer.

The main towns on the island are Filicudi Porto and Pecorini a Mare, as well as other smaller towns connected by various paths, all of which can only be explored on foot. In addition to the wonderful naturalistic itineraries, the headland of Capo Graziano with the ruins of Filobraccio, a Neolithic village, and the Archaeological Museum of the Aeolian Islands in Filicudi Porto are not to be missed.

The shipping companies that perform departures to Filicudi are Liberty Lines and Siremar, using modern and fast hydrofoils or comfortable ferries.
