Southern Italy's Volcanoes, Ancient Cultures & Sun-Warmed Beaches
According to legend, three mythological nymphs created Sicily. And what a land they made. Whitewashed towns cling to cliffs high above the sea. Tendrils of hot steam drift above volcanic rocks. Trees and wildflowers embellish the green hillsides. And just off the coast, discover the magic of the Aeolian Islands. However it came to be, this place is spectacular.

Featured Destinations
Vulcano
Vulcano is an active volcanic island of the Aeolian archipelago, north of Sicily, Italy. Ancient Greeks originally named the island Therassia and Thermessa. The island’s myths indicated that the Olympian god Hephaestus or Vulcan (as named by the Romans) had his own private workshop inside the volcano. Until the 19th century, Romans have been retrieving raw materials harvesting wood, mining alum and sulfur. Present-day Vulcano is famous for its therapeutic mud baths, hot springs, and vineyards. Travelers visiting Vulcano can hike Fossa di Vulcano, catch some rays at Siaggia Sabbia Nera beach, and tour the Gruppo Nazionale Vulcanologia museum.
Linguaglossa
Renowned for its ski resorts, Linguaglossa means “tongue” in both Greek and Italian. Its location is positioned on the slopes of the volcano where lava streams shaped its slopes.
