Hotels near Pantelleria Airport - PNL, Pantelleria

The island is amazing and so unique. With a mask and a snorkel you can watch so many fish on the volcanic rock seabed, and feel the warmth of the hot springs in the sea. The food is wonderful, typically the island is based more on agriculture than fish, so you will see wineries, capers plantations, and areas where tomatoes, vegetables, figs, olives and all kinds of herbs are grown. A typical dish is the Pantesca salad, which is delicious!

PAntelleria is one of those places which you either like or dislike; its shortcomings and very unspoilt nature are its beauty; the people too are relaxed and have learnt to ,make the best of their harsh environment; we were amazed at how its natural beauties have not been commercialized yet and at the good quality of the food in the restaurants ; sometimes even surprised with some particular cuisine like sweet made from ricotta and capers which is one of their limited produce

It is a beautiful and interesting island, with an incredible clear sea, but was excruciatingly hot and the sea was full of jellyfish. Choose carefully the month you want to visit Pantelleria: if you don't like extreme heat, perhaps better to go in May-June or September-October

Pantelleria is a hidden gem. Still untouched from mass tourism. The whole island is a nature preserve. The water is spectacular although sometimes hard to get down to. Shopping is limited however dining out is not a problem and quite good.
