Frequently we are asked questions about transport to Stromboli and accommodation on the island. Much of this information is available in printed travel guides or online. Please understand that maintaining this website is a highly time-consuming task and that we are unable to provide individual and free travel info. However as a service to travellers we have collected the most relevant links to information on the Web.
Distances are small enough for walking.
Transport between the two villages of Stromboli and Ginostra is by ship, hydrofoil or small boats operated by locals. Hotels in Stromboli village use small vehicles to pick up guests and baggage from the boat jetty at Scari. On Stromboli this is, not least, due to the fact that Aliscafi and ships may be unable to land under adverse weather conditions. Camping is also neither allowed nor advisable on the volcano. Hygiene is one reason, your personal safety another.
