In the southern part of the island, there is the beach called Spiaggia dell'Asino that is very popular with tourists. Black volcanic sand, blue waters of the Tyrrhenian Sea, privacy, peaceful atmosphere, picturesque landscapes, excellent infrastructure (restaurants and cafes) - these are the advantages of visiting the beach. You can even take a cruise from here. The tourists prefer sunbathing at the beach. It is perfectly suitable for swimming too due to the warm water and gentle “entrance” to the sea.

Another popular beach on the island is Spiaggia Nera located in the northern part of Vulcano. Its main feature is incredibly beautiful picturesque views of the sea and, of course, black sand (that is an integral part of any beach of the island). The beach is perfect for sunbathing, swimming and diving. If you come here at sunset, your recreation will turn into a true fairy tale. Near it, there is the port where you can embark on a cruise on the lake with healing muds attracting many tourists.

Spiaggia delle Acque Calde is the only beach on the island with black sand. The water here is very hot (due to gas streams that warm up the sea water), so it is perfect for swimming. Children will be delighted by bubbles from the bottom. Finally, you should taste exquisite desserts that are cooked only on Vulcano. So, you should order ice-cream in Il Gelato di Antonio and Ritrovo Remigio. The real paradise for sweet-teeth with a wide choice of desserts is the Faraglione Bar. You should definitely come here with little tourists.
