The canal that separates it from the mainland is famous for its clear and quiet waters and is often called the “Portofino of Lake Como”. In addition to its natural beauty, the island has a fascinating history: in 1169 it was completely destroyed by fire during the conflicts between Como and Milan. Since then it has not been rebuilt, leaving visible even today archaeological remains and ruins, which make the island a unique place, where nature and history meet.
