Scario beach, Malfa, Aeolian Islands
In the heart of the Aeolian Islands there is one that nature has missed nothing: from the olive trees and the vines of Malvasia for the richest areas of fertile land, to caper plants that grow three rocks where the soil is more limestone.
Salina, among the Lipari Islands, is one of the largest, greenest and fertile. Here, in the center of the island, is Malfa, one of the three municipalities that make up the island. The environments of this small town were the background of Massimo Trosi's film “The Postman” where the director portrayed the beautiful nature, the white houses and squared and alleys, which look like a maze.
Malfa is a marine town and its heart constitutes a tiny port, a refuge for fishing vessels (moreover the only one still existing to the Aeolian Islands).
In the morning it is possible to buy fresh fish from fishermen who have just returned from the fishing trip.
The stay in Malfa offers the beautiful sea and the beaches and coves will satisfy even the most demanding people. The closest beach is Punta Scario, an enchanting cove of rocks and volcanic stones (here you forget the sand).
It is an ancient site of the island that is accessed through a path traced ancient by the islanders with lava stones and overlooks one of the most beautiful views of the island.
Nature lovers can visit the reserves "Mountains of Ferns" and "Leeks of the Island of Salina & ; quot; rich in fauna and flora, and with hiking trails.
Malfa is also an ideal starting point for trips to the island: the public service allows you to reach all other locations of the island. You can also rent cars, mopeds, boats, dinghies, etc.
