Stromboli Volcano Photo Gallery

Stromboli is a small island in the Mediterranean Sea, 55 km from the Sicilian coast. Here in 2001 I experienced lava fountains, ash, gasses and eruptions for the first time. It made me an instant lava addict for ever. And since the almost continuous "Strombolian" activity is a lava addict's heaven I went back a second time in 2002. This time with some volcano hunting friends. Again a real adventure. And since the photos turned out well again I know for sure I will go back one day.
