During the Neolithic the Aeolian Islands (especially Lipari) experienced a period of flourishing civilization whose
source was the exploitation of obsidian that is of that volcanic "glass" erupted from the craters of the Forgia Vecchia and Monte Pilato.
The island of Lipari is full of ancient historical finds. The most significant is certainly the Castle, located on the
ancient acropolis and dating back to the sixth century. Today it is home to the "Aeolian Archaeological Museum"
which, with its collections, traces the rich history of the islands from prehistory to the Middle Ages.
Walking around the island, one of the most characteristic places that you can visit is the pumice quarry of Porticello, which gives the sand a particular shade of white, making the sea water more crystalline and turquoise. At the center of the village Marina Corta, we find a lively square and a course full of bars and shops,
while Sottomonastero and Marina Lunga, offer a quay reserved for boats in transit. The tourist port of Pignataro is located at the northern end of the inlet, is protected by a quay pier for free mooring and equipped with a floating pier for mooring for a fee with assistance, electricity and water services.
