Scoglio della Vela

A rock to see is called the Vela. It is located in the highest point of the island. If you visit the island by land you will find yourself in an area characterized by a small round building which encloses a wooden crucifix. Beyond the low stone wall, you can see the stack called the Vela and the cliffs that drop to the sea. The rock of the sail is considered as the stack for excellence in Lampedusa due to its beauty and suggestiveness, especially at sunset.
