vista
Filicudi is one of the most famous places in Italy for its clear waters. The clear blue sea at Filicudi is unlike anywhere else in the Mediterranean. Take a moment to stop at the beach of Filicudi Pecorini, at the beginning of the promontory of Capo Graziano, and appreciate the crystal blue sea.
udito
Filicudi does not experience mass tourism like other islands. Therefore, any time of the year is ideal for taking a dip in absolute silence. Close your eyes during the day and if you are lucky you will hear a concert of cicadas. At night the cicadas are replaced by crickets, owls and other nocturnal animals, an experience not easily forgotten.
tatto
Go to the beach near the port of Filicudi. Here, along with pebbles, you will find volcanic sand, which is typically black. Pick up a handful of sand, perhaps from under the water, and you will feel its delicacy and simultaneous strength and robustness.
olfatto
Filicudi’s name comes from Phoenicusa, meaning Fern. You need only go just beyond the main roads to find lots of them. Locate one of them and smell the intense scent they give off.
gusto
Spend some time in Filicudi looking for typical products made on the island. From the inevitable capers to tomatoes, aubergines and courgettes grown in spring and summer, you will discover new flavours, characteristic of these products.
