Leaving Sicily behind, the crossing to the Aeolian Islands takes you across open water before Stromboli's active volcano — visibly smoking, sometimes glowing at night — comes into view. Lipari's whitewashed hillside town and its archaeological museum are an easy first stop for those docking there instead. A guided night hike up Stromboli to watch its eruptions from a safe distance is one of the most memorable experiences in the whole archipelago.
