This exciting day trip combines relaxed beach time and island exploration. After departing the base, you will transfer by bus to the port of Milazzo. From there, you will take a fast hydrofoil to Lipari, and once you arrive at the port, a dedicated bus will transport you directly to Canneto, the island's premier beach area. Spend the morning relaxing on the beautiful coastline, swimming in the crystal-clear water, or renting a sun umbrella at a local lido (approximately Euro 25.00). Lunch will be on your own, allowing you to sample local Sicilian dishes at your own pace at one of the seaside cafes/restaurants.

In the early afternoon, the bus will pick you up from Canneto and transport you to the historic center of Lipari.  Enjoy free time wandering the charming narrow streets and souvenir boutiques, grab a gelato or visit the Lipari Castle with the guide.

You will conclude the day with a return trip via hydrofoil back to Milazzo, followed by a transfer to the base. Registration deadline for this trip is September 2.
