San Pietro and Iditella
The core of Panarea’s settlement is San Pietro, tucked onto gentle terraces and
backed by gnarled outcrops of rock. It’s here that you’ll find most of the
accommodation, restaurants and facilities, while just to the north, passing through
Iditella, you’ll see evidence of volcanic activity in the steaming gas emissions
(fumarole) on the sand-and-pebble beach below here, the Spiaggia Fumarole, or
Calcara.
