It’s completely horrible outside and so of course you’re envisioning your summer retreat, wherever that may be. Be it Greece or Italy (or anywhere else on the continent for that matter), summer is a great time to go to Europe, and Italy is a prime spot for many Americans.
Yes, you could make like everyone else and go to Capri or Sardinia. OR you could go a world away to Pantelleria, which sits between Sicily and Tunisia but is actually closer to the latter. The island has long been known as a celebrity hideout, but it has none of the celebrity culture some of the hot spots may have.

Laghetto delle Ondine is a natural swimming pool that gets hit with salt water thanks to crashing waves.
Consider yourself warned. Make haste to Pantelleria!
