The geographic position of the island suggests the mildness of the climate also during winter.

It's during this season that Marettimo reveals in its entirety its character of fierce island, fortress in the sea able to resist, undefeateable, to every renewed assault of the wind and the sea.

It's the best period for those that, stressed by the chaos and the tension of the city life, really search for an absolute tranquillity and peace, in order to find again, by means of the strait contact with a wild nature, but not for this hostile one, the equilibrium between spirit and body that the too much often obsessive life of the modern cities destroys day after day.

Walking along the harbours, in the calm of the winter sunsets, exchanging friendly greetings with the people of the place, or walking in a perfect loneliness along the very well maintained paths bringing to the beautifulst panoramic views of the island one will be able to resume contact with the physiological rhythms of the natural life, made of dawn and sunsets and hours that slide quiet, breathing the fragances of the sea and of the Mediterranean plants, admiring the meant blue of the delicate flowers of the rosemary, listening to the powerful voice of the sea and the callbacks of the gulls, and not the city noises.

Marettimo in winter, mountain in the middle of the Mediterranean, is an oasis of quiet and silence, a port of the spirit.
