Spiaggia dei Conigli

Reviewed By GcRedaelli - Dublin, Ireland

The best beach of the island by far, but also the busiest one. By walk it takes about 15 minutes from the street down to go there. It opens at 8.30. If it is constantly rated the best beach in 'Europe' it must be a reason! The water and colour of the sand are so unique. Speechless. Lampedusa has also the advantage of having a convenient airport to travel from Catania or Palermo, and the norther airports on summer time.

Scalata al Cratere

Reviewed By Chudomoe - Lausanne, Switzerland

Easy walk up, even accessible for non sportive people. But requires a good balance for the walk down, and good shoes. Great for nice pictures and nice open landscape. A must do!

Lago di Venere

Reviewed By Lawrentian - New York City, United States

We visited lo specchio di venere several years ago, and it was one of the great highlights of our week in Pantelleria. The island as a whole is fascinating and spectacular--craggy volcanic rock everywhere, used for everything from building houses to building sheltered groves for fruit trees. Lo specchio di venere--the mirror of Venus--is a placid pool, shallow at the edges, deep in the center, with water ranging from a milky blue at the edges to violet blue in the deep center. Many visitors coat themselves with grey volcanic mud and come away looking like animated figures from the ruins of Pompeii. We found the place very moving--peaceful, beautiful, unexpected. The surrounding landscape is interesting, too--I have uploaded a picture--but the water is the compelling feature, and the reason to visit.

Spiaggia dell'Asino

Reviewed By StefanoCotrufo

The plus of a speed boat in the aeolian archipelago is that you can go breakfast on one island, lunch in the next one and dinner party of the following. The Asino beach is definitely the best stop for the day: no matter how big is your boat or how large is your crowd: the beach is secured with safety nets and the boat shuttle is with you to bring you on this paradise beach in a few minutes all day long. The resort is imbedded within the rocks and sand and you feel like bricks and cement never existed - and never should. The serving staff is very friendly, fast and multilingual to offer you lunch or drinks on the stunning beach or on their large terrace in the shadow of local trees, palms and rocks. Plenty of sofas and chill out corners exist under the rocks to allow you the most resting experience before going back to your boat. I always feel like I could spend there the whole night, but obviously this is not an option...:) As this side of the island is protected between the whole archipelago and the Sicilian main land, the see is always flat and perfect for any water sport. Not to miss it and certa lu to come back every year - for those who can.
