Stromboli has one primary anchorage at Ficogrande, offshore the white Aeolian houses and black sand beaches. When anchoring care needs to be taken to avoid the shoals at the point and to leave space for the water tanker that ties up near the small pier of ficogrande (if the water taker comes in and you are in its spot you will need to move).
Buoys are available near Scari. However, it is not possible to anchor offshore Scari becasue of an Italian ordinance that forbids anchoring or fishing in this area.
Il Miglio Blue [ Il Miglio Blue ] 22-Feb-2010We anchored overnight off the point in the only shallow water.
On the C-Map chart it shows a prohibited anchoring and fishing area just south of here.
