Filicudi in the Aeolian Islands is a hidden gem off Sicily. It's wild. Unspoiled. And it's absolutely perfect for nature lovers. Home to Filicudi Porto, Valdichiesa, Pecorini a Mare, connected by a scenic road.

Filicudi thrived in Roman times as a trading hub. Fertile soil for crops. Byzantines, Arabs, Normans all left their mark. Its cliffs and coast guarded against pirates in the Middle Ages. Geography-wise, it's volcanic, with cliffs, and has these colorful rock layers, and geological wonders.
