Going All-In on the Aeolians
Rustic glamour prevails on all of the Aeolian Islands, which were born from volcanic action in the cracks of a great plain at the bottom of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Unlike their better-known neighbor Capri — a shopper’s paradise where the streets are lined with Gucci, Prada and Missoni boutiques — there is little to acquire in the Aeolian Islands besides a tan.
