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.
