Kind staff, good service, excellent coffee and deserts, good wine and pasta, breathtaking beaches, enough space for 12 people. Good music on board.Absolutely recommended trip

We took our car to the island by ferry. It was 48euro for 2 people (price also depends on car size, we had a fiat panda). You don’t need to book a ferry ticket in advance (it was actually more expensive that way). We just turned up, they take your ID, and once you’re on the ferry, you buy your open-return ticket there, and collect your ID again. When you come off the ferry, to the right of the entrance, you’ll see all the boat operators lined up. So if you want to book a trip, you can choose from a big variety. Again, no need to book in advance, but probably better if you do if you want a full-day boat trip as they seem to set off around 9:30-10am. We chose to drive as we wanted to snorkel in our own time (brought cheap snorkels from Decathlon!). I advise you take drinks and snacks, as the best beaches have nothing, apart from sand and crystal clear waters. We found Capera, to the right of the island, to be less interesting. Its more rugged, full of large bolders. The best beach there is a 30min walk to get to, and they recommend taking a guide, so we gave this as miss as we were only there for 1day. I loved the north west of the main island. Spiaggia delo stangeloto was my fave. Very uneven terrain to get there, but we did it in our Panda! Its a small secluded beach, great for snorkelling. But this whole area had beaches, just drive and you’ll discover somewhere. We finished with dinner in the main town, lots of choices of bars and restaurants. And boarding the ferry was so straightforward. Beautiful place. The best highlight of our trip!
