Santa Marina to Ginostra ferry
The ferry journey from Santa Marina to Ginostra links two very different corners of the Aeolian Islands: lively Santa Marina Salina, on the island of Salina, and Ginostra, the tiny sea-facing village on Stromboli’s southwestern coast. Leaving Santa Marina, the view opens across volcanic water and island silhouettes, turning the crossing into a memorable part of an Aeolian adventure rather than simply a transfer.
Ginostra is known for its strikingly secluded setting, with white houses gathered on steep volcanic slopes above the sea. The village has no road connection to the rest of Stromboli, so arrival by boat is central to its distinctive, far-from-the-everyday character. It is a wonderful destination for travellers drawn to quiet lanes, dramatic landscapes and the raw beauty of the Mediterranean’s volcanic islands.
The Santa Marina – Ginostra route can also form an appealing link within a wider island-hopping holiday, whether you are continuing through the Aeolian archipelago or making Ginostra your main escape. The islands are recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage site for their exceptional volcanic landscapes, and the approach to Stromboli offers a particularly powerful sense of place.
