    Isola dei Pescatori (Isola Superiore) "The Fishermen's Island" on Lake Maggiore
    Isola dei Pescatori, also known as Fishermen's Island or Isola Superiore, is the only permanently inhabited island.
    Its characteristic alleys and houses with long balconies for drying fish, the small village square, the tree-lined promenade, and the main street make it one of the most romantic and picturesque spots on the lake.
    Also characteristic is the small market selling local handicrafts, which attracts many tourists.
