  • Compagnia Delle Isole S.P.A
    Compagnia delle Isole S.p.A 1 Compagnia delle Isole S.p.A. Servizi di trasporto marittimo con le isole minori della Sicilia - Convenzione con il Ministero delle Infrastrutture e Trasporti - 2 Premessa Compagnia delle Isole esercisce i servizi di collegamento marittimo con le isole minori della Sicilia nel rispetto della Convenzione stipulata con lo Stato ( Ministero delle Infrastrutture e Trasporti) nel luglio del 2012. L’attività, svolta regolarmente in ogni giorno dell’anno, rappresenta la rete dei collegamenti essenziali necessaria per assicurare la mobilità delle popolazioni isolane e soddisfare la domanda turistica. La Regione Siciliana ha da anni stipulato contratti di servizio con altri operatori per servizi integrativi, sia con traghetti sia con mezzi veloci, rispetto a quelli forniti da Compagnia delle Isole. 3 Quanto sopra per meglio comprendere le ragioni alla base della situazione di disagio che il settore navigazione veloce sta vivendo in questi giorni. Il blocco seppure temporaneo, poco più di 48 ore, dei servizi marittimi integrativi, per quanto è dato sapere, discende da una diversa interpretazione dei risultati di gara che ha visto la Regione assegnare alla Ustica Lines l’espletamento di collegamenti dietro corrispettivo. Nel quadro che si è delineato, Compagnia delle Isole, come in altre occasioni, chiamata dai Sindaci delle isole e dalla stessa Regione siciliana a intervenire per ridurre al massimo i disagi degli utenti ha svolto fino in fondo il proprio compito e ha risposto positivamente e immediatamente attivando in anticipo l’orario estivo dei collegamenti. La situazione complessiva non può però considerarsi definita e merita attenzione da parte delle Autorità interessate per due motivi principali: 4 1.

    Aeolian Islands Tour Aeolian Islands Tour by SOLEANIS A journey through sea, fire, wind...and wine. STROMBOLI PANAREA FILICUDI ALICUDI SALINA LIPARI VULCANO MILAZZO CAPO D’ORLANDO SICILY Rising out of the cobalt-blue seas off Sicily’s northeastern coast, Aeolian Islands (Vulcano, Lipari, Salina, Panarea, Stromboli, Filicudi and Alicudi) are a little piece of paradise, a magical outdoor playground offering thrills and spills at every turn. Stunning waters provide sport for swimmers, sailors and divers, while trekkers can climb hissing volcanoes and gourmets can sip honey-sweet Malvasia wine. Astonishingly beautiful and extremely varied, the seven islands and various uninhabited islets of the Aeolian archipelago were designated a Unesco World Heritage Site in 2000. Their volcanic origins left a dramatic legacy of black-sand be- aches, smouldering craters and splintered, rocky coastlines. Island-hoppers can discover their individual charms: from the spartan conical Alicudi, where donkeys are the only form of land transport, to the international jet-set playground of Panarea. North of Sicily in the Tyrrhenian Sea, the archipelago was named after Aeolus, god of the winds, by Greek settlers. This has been a volatile part of the world ever since Filicudi, the first land mass, emerged from the sea 600,000 years ago. There are two active volcanoes, Stromboli and Vulcano, and volcanic activity of some kind, whether steaming fumaroles or thermal waters waiting to be tapped, on most of the other islands. Winter storms see the islands cut off for days. Like many coastal communities, the islands, with a total population of 10,000, have very different characters depending on the season.
