Cruising Aeoli

We are currently cruising the Aeolian Islands (just nort of Sicily) with our final charter of the summer. This area is truely a fantastic place to cruise and is such a contrast to the South of Frace and Italian Rivera. The landscape is incredibly rugged as these islands were all once a series of volcanos. In fact, Stromboli is still an active volcano. And best of all, we have only seen 3 other megayachts since we have been here - a far cry from St Tropez.
Anchored off Filicudi. In some places we anchor in 30m of water but only about 15m from the rocks - very deep around here. Stromboli (below) is still an active volcano.
