Isola di San Pietro

Meravigliosa!Wow! Where to start! So far one of my preferred places in our travels. Franco has been here few times before. But I didn't expect it to be so beautiful! It has this special atmosphere maybe because it's very small roughly 20km X 20 km. It's four of us, Franco and I, Liz our friend that often goes on holidays with us and Davide that stays here 6 months a year but comes from Travo which is close to where we all live. It's always great to have an insider that knows all the stuff about the island 🙂

They all spearfish so we have fish every day!!There's only one town on the island- Carloforte with it's majestic ficus trees in the main square.

The town has everything you need with restaurants, supermarkets and bars.And obviously is very lively so if you want to have fun you go to the city and if you want to have peace you can find a quiet beach with few people at this time of the year 

.The rest are all the houses hidden in the countryside. Today is sunny but you don't sweat and the water is still warm enough for a swim. Perfect!

Near the city there are old ponds used to produce salt -full of flamingos!!

We have already visited few beaches, the lighthouse and Franco showed me a secret spot where you can watch the eagles. 

Also found the perfect spot for now! It's nice to have a base for few days that you don't have to move and can take all your equipment out.

Tonight we're going to the city. We going to try pasta e patate dish. No it's not from here, it's Napoli's special but there is a pizzeria with Napoli's origins and tonight they serve it).So festa!!!
