Visit Lipari for a holiday you will always remember.Located just three kilometres north from the main township of Lipari is Canneto. Canneto is set amongst the beautiful surroundings of a bay bordered to the south east by Monte Rosa and to the north by Monte Pelato. The town covers the length of the bay and runs parallel to the sea. In the past, it used to be a town that housed only miners, but now it has every amenity that residents or tourists might need: restaurants, chemists, bakers, supermarkets, newsagents and even a post-office, all looking onto the gravel beach.
It is a town to which tourism has given a new lease of life; this is particularly noticeable in the piazza with its unusual chequered paving, which throughout the day is a lively place full of people, both tourists and residents, meeting, mixing and chatting.
