Spend 7–9 hours aboard two nimble dinghies exploring Favignana and Levanzo: cliff-fringed coves, the Grotta degli Innamorati, snorkeling over clear reefs, and a tasting lunch with open drinks. Small groups, close access to hidden bays, and local captains shape an all‑day coastal adventure.

The pier at Trapani holds the morning like a held breath — engines chatter, awnings fold, and two nine‑meter dinghies cut the mirror-flat water toward Favignana and Levanzo. Salt spray cools your face as limestone cliffs slide past in layers of ochre and white; the boats duck into coves where water goes from glassy turquoise to inky blue and invites you in.

History
The Egadi archipelago is near the site of the 241 BC Battle of the Aegates, an event tied to the end of the First Punic War; Favignana also has a long tradition of tuna fishing (tonnara).
Conservation
The Egadi Islands are part of a marine protected area that regulates fishing and anchoring to protect reefs and seagrass; visitors are asked to use reef‑safe products and avoid disturbing marine life.
Reserve your spot on the Dinghy excursion to the Egadi Islands with tasting on board today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Arrive early at the pier
Boarding starts promptly at the listed time; arriving 20–30 minutes early ensures a quick check‑in and the best spots on board.
Bring reef‑safe sunscreen and a hat
The sun and reflected light from the sea intensify exposure during a long day on open water; use biodegradable sunscreen to protect reefs.
Wear water shoes with good grip
Landings can be rocky and uneven on small dinghies and island shores — closed‑toe water shoes make moving on and off the boats safer.
Prepare for basic seasickness
Crossings are generally short but choppy conditions are possible; ginger, wristbands, or medication can make the day comfortable.
Swimsuit and quick‑dry towel
You'll swim and snorkel; a quick‑dry towel is useful between stops.
