The island counts around 2.200 inhabitants and it is made up of three municipalities. In Salina there are six volcanoes, whose last eruption dates back to 13.000 years ago. The main activities in Salina are the cultivation of grapes, oil, capers. Salina is the home of the well-known white wine Malvasia.

SALINAMUSEUM OF EMIGRATION

In Salina we first went to the museum of emigration where we saw various pictures and old visas that showed the many people who had to emigrate in the past from Milazzo.

SalinaVineyards

In the Salina vineyards we got to know how one of the most famous Sicilian wines\liquor is made and later they served us a lunch with very traditional Sicillian dishes. One of the most famous drinks made there is Malvasia, which is a really sweet alcoholic drink, that is served with “Piparelle”
