On the island of Panarea there is an interesting archaeological area on Capo Milazzese close to the steep cliffs at Cala Junco where you can see the remains of a fascinating ancient civilization that existed between 1440 and 1270 BC.
Another charming destination is the area around the three basalt rocks, Basiluzzo, Dattilo and Lisca Bianca at Panarea. Originally this was one island called Evonimus, but a powerful earthquake split it up into the three rocks you see today.
It’s a wonderful experience to watch the gurgling water release gaseous steam from the underwater craters. In days of old, it is thought that this was a sacred location for Hephaestus.
