Discover Linosa

Linosa - Linosa is a small island of just 5 sq km and 300 inhabitants; together with Lampedusa it gives life to the Pelagie archipelago, but morphologically it is different from its older sister: Lampedusa is limestone, Linosa is Vulcanica. In fact, Linosa has two craters, albeit extinct. The small historic center is characterized by the colorful and multicolored cubic houses that vaguely recall the houses of South America.

The most characteristic and particular places of the island are found along the coast, where we can visit the stacks, the natural pools, the lighthouse. Although the island has a more agricultural vocation than fishing and for this reason it is 80% autonomous in relation to food products. Gastronomic flagships are figs, capers and onions. Absolutely not to be missed is the pozzolana beach, the only one on the island, made up of black sand, where the caretta-caretta turtles nest and with a little luck you can even witness the hatching of the eggs.
