Reasons to Visit the Amazing Pantelleria
Why go?
Forged in fire, this rocky island’s volcanic origins are visible at every turn – in its twisted crags, its black-stone villas and its brooding fumaroles that seep steam clouds into the Sicilian sunshine. It’s the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway – whether you’re travelling alone, with a partner or as a family. Bubbling hot springs and gloopy mud baths provide natural treatments to revitalise your body, and the jagged coastline is dotted with isolated coves that are ideal for snorkelling and boat trips. Pantelleria’s setting in the Straits of Sicily means that top-notch seafood is never far away, and neither is a bottle of the local sweet ‘passito’ wine.
A traditional island home
With its stunning scenery, quiet back-roads and secluded villas, it’s little wonder that the island is a favourite with the likes of Giorgio Armani and Madonna. It was also the backdrop for 2015’s A Bigger Splash, starring Tilda Swinton and Ralph Fiennes as holidaying celebrities in search of peace and luxury. You don’t need a bulging bank balance to stay in Pantelleria though. There are plenty of holiday homes and private apartments to suit a range of budgets – so you can be confident of finding the right base to explore the island at your own pace.

When to go?
Pantelleria’s mild climate makes it a great holiday destination throughout the year. However, the best time to enjoy the sunshine is between May and September, when temperatures rise to around 25°C – warm enough to bask in sultry summer vibes, but cool enough so that you can explore the landscape without sweltering.
