The island of Pantelleria is a wild volcanic island access to the sea is always with rocks there are no beaches but the sea is very clean and crystalline moreover there is a mountain 800 m high where we normally go mushrooming and to do long walks with our dogs and children there is also a lake is the lake of Venus where you can make mud and swim in the warm waters. There is also a natural sauna in the mountains right in a cave, a place with very high energy.
