The dinghy slips from a low pier and the sea immediately takes the lead: wind tugs at the canopy, spray sketches the hull and the Egadi islands open like pages—rock faces, white sand lips, and caves cut through by centuries of waves.

Wildlife
History
Favignana’s economy was historically shaped by the tonnara (tuna fisheries) and Florio canneries; tuff quarrying carved many coastal ledges you see today.
Conservation
Posidonia meadows are protected and crucial for local biodiversity—avoid anchoring on meadows, use reef‑safe products and follow crew guidance to minimize impact.

Bring reef‑safe sunscreen
The sun is strong on the water and Posidonia meadows are sensitive—use reef‑safe SPF to protect both skin and sea life.
Wear sturdy water shoes
Many bays have pebbles or flat tuff rock; water shoes make swims and short landings more comfortable and safe.
Prepare for motion
If you’re prone to seasickness, take medication before boarding—there’s limited shelter on a small dinghy when the sea picks up.
Respect no‑anchor zones
Avoid standing on or anchoring over posidonia beds—use mooring points or follow crew guidance to protect the seafloor.
Snorkel mask (optional personal)
While masks are provided, using your own ensures fit and comfort while snorkeling in coves.
