It doesn't get much more romantic than this.

See & Do
See & DoExplore the island for starters: there are a few wonderful little beaches (though you'll probably swim straight from the rocks too) and viewpoints like the Calcara ridge, where there are spectacular views of volcanic Stromboli, the next island. Hire a boat and swim or snorkel from some of the offshore islets, or take a sunset cruise and snap the brilliant volcanic eruptions from neighbouring Stromboli.
