The island - WALKS Imagine walking in silence and solitude, along the rocky coast and the Mediterranean wild bush vegetation, while flocks of sea gulls fly above your head, accompanied only by the tranquil undertones of the sea! This experience is possible only 30 minutes of traveling from the neurotic lifestyle and terrible loud noises of daily living. |

Giannutri is nicknamed the island of sea gulls because the sea gulls remain on the island during the winter season, and nest in spring before departing during the month of July. It is very emotional and fascinating to have the opportunity to watch the migrating preparations of the large flocks of birds that pratice for hours and hours prior to making that definite migrant flight to faraway lands. The birds return during the month of November.

Some suggested walks to take on the island
click on place for information --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The size of the island is very small and it is possible to walk around the entire island in a couple of hours. In this enviroment that is so different than the norm, everyone is requested to respect the natural ambient in a very scrupulous manner. Giannutri is equivalent to a national park, so therefore it is severely prohibited to ignite fires, throw garbage or wastes, collect or pick flowers or plants, disturb or kill wildlife, create any form of disturbance of the peace, or camping.
