The island of Linosa, situated in the Channel of Sicily, makes part of the archipelago of the Pelagius that also contains Lampedusa and Lampione.
Of a recent volcanic origin (it is supposed that its origin may be of the quaternary period), it is constituted by three principal relieves that delimit a central basin¸ known as fossa del cappellano. From the top of the mountain Volcano, that constitutes the most classical walk of Linosa, is possible, crossing the brief perimeter of its crater, to enjoy some sight of the whole coast of the island.
Endowed with varied and interesting terrestrial flora and fauna, (to quote an example the capers or the delicious lentils and, as far as it concerns the fauna, the lizards filfolensis, some kinds of rare coleopters and some sea birds like the real gull and the major bertha that nest on the island), the greatest attraction of Linosa is constituted by its spectacular backdrops.
Whichever description, even the most accurate, would result insufficient to make justice to this submerged nature rich of caves, ravines, inlets that entertain the typical flora and fauna of the Mediterranean and, at the same time, close relatives of the tropical environments.

The hospitality here is rich and complete. Our rooms, spacious and comfortable, endowed with conditioned air, fridge cafe, television, telephone, bath with of all comforts, represents the optimal solution for who wants to enjoy a holiday in the most absolute calm.
The reception formula of the bed and breakfast includes the first breakfast with a rich buffet to be consumed in the pleasant little garden, which brings to a well furnished library of classical and

contemporary texts and excursions and turns of the island on the raft of the Bad and Breakfast La Posta.

Moreover it is possible to organize grills in the barbecue of the little garden with the possibility of roasting the fish fished personally or acquired directly by the island fishermen among them “Nino” (the nice and cordial fishmonger of the island), lunch on equipped boats, immersions with the support of experienced subs, fishing parties, sightseeing to the "crater" (from which it is possible to admire a beautiful view) and in all the most suggestive places of Linosa.

The Bed and breakfast Residence La Posta is located in the island of Linosa, at 161 Kms (90 sea miles) from the Sicilian coast and at 42 Kms NNE from the island of Lampedusa.
It is situated in the heart of the inhabited centre, next to the only church of the island, beyond the postal office from which it has taken the name and, even thought it is perfectly inserted in the context of the suggestive cottages of Linosa, it is at only 500 meters from the sea.
