30/06/2026: Campsite at the foot of Capo Vaticano, located at the end of the beach known as Tono, and this stretch in particular, Tonicello. The location is such that the beach—free, beautiful, wide, and sandy all the way to the shore (after which there are rocks or pebbles)—is practically for the exclusive use of the campsite, as there are no other accesses closer. The campsite is right on the edge of the beach, and the front-row pitches are literally a stone's throw away.
The view of the horizon is extraordinary, especially at sunset when the sun sets alongside Stromboli, creating a unique panorama with the volcano and its ever-present plume of smoke. Salina, another Aeolian island, is also sometimes visible.
The structure is dated, especially in terms of spatial design. The pitches are all adjacent to each other, shaded by awnings held up by wooden poles that also mark the boundaries between them.
Furthermore, the size would not allow for the placement of campers longer than 6/6.5 meters, except in a small section of the campsite. In the low season, however, given the availability of free spaces, trespassing is widely tolerated. The facilities are dated, but unlike other reviewers, I've always found them efficient and clean, and above all, adequate in number for the facility's capacity, although the shower token issue is always a bit of a hassle. It's far from the town centers, so a scooter or bicycle is highly recommended, especially an electric one given the steep slopes. The pizzeria is excellent, and the Market bar is also available.
In conclusion, I consider this campsite to be blessed with a spectacular setting, offering absolute tranquility and relaxation, allowing you to fall asleep to the sound of the sea—all of which overshadow the logistical aspects mentioned above.
25/06/2026: I can only review the campsite itself. The location was fantastic for us. We have a canoe and can easily paddle to the coves of Capo Vaticano. The campsite is rather old and offers little natural shade. However, the pitches are shaded by awnings. The sanitary facilities are old but clean. A highlight is the abundance of showers located between the beach and the campsite, perfect for rinsing off after swimming. The mini-market is very small and only stocks the essentials. Bread can be ordered for the next day. Hot showers are available for a fee, but cold water is always available. The pitches are rather small, especially those in the first row.
