The ferry port of Lipari is at the main town of the largest of the Aeolian Islands, north of Sicily. From here you can reach 14 destinations, among them Vulcano, Milazzo and Salina. Together the services add up to as many as 234 departures a day; that makes Lipari the hub of the archipelago, and Alicudi, Filicudi, Panarea and Stromboli are served from here as well.
