Italy's islands follow a Mediterranean pattern of hot, dry summers and milder, wetter winters, with June to September the busiest stretch. Cooking across the Italian islands leans on seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines, which shapes what a restaurant on Salina typically serves. Ferries and hydrofoils link the Aeolian Islands to the mainland and to each other, so hopping between Salina and neighbours such as Lipari is straightforward.
