Some Ideas and Recommendations:

Volcanoes of Southern Italy

There are not many countries apart from Italy that can boast such an array of volcanoes. Southern Italy and Sicily between them, can. Vesuvius towering above Naples, Etna in Sicily, the majestic backdrop to Taormina and the two islands of Vulcano and Stromboli - have you ever been on holiday and climbed to the summit of a volcano?

Spend time relaxing on your terrace at Hotel Villa Sonia in Sicily, which has the most fantastic, uninterrupted views of Mount Etna. One of the world's best known volcanoes, snow capped for most of the year, its appearance seems to change whenever you look at it, and the views of the sun setting behind it are breathtaking - until you experience it, you cannot imagine how beautiful it is.

Or why not stay in a restored monastery, the Hotel San Francesco al Monte, in Naples or the family-run Hotel Villa Garden in Sorrento - both have spectacular views across the Bay of Naples, to Mount Vesuvius.

Alternatively, holiday at our Lipari hotel, you can relax on the black lava beaches or take day trips and island hop to one of the other six islands, which make up the archipelago. On Vulcano it is even possible to bathe in mud (!)... apparently it's therapeutic and, on Stromboli you can go on a guided climb to the summit of the volcano - bear in mind it is still active!!!
