More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The boat slips away from Trapani as the harbor light thins and the sea opens—Favignana’s pale limestone cliffs appear like a promise. Guests trade the bustle of the port for narrow coves: Cala Rossa’s warm rock faces, the glassy shallows of Cala Azzurra, the broad quay at Tonnara di Favignana. Skipper and crew lower snorkels and floating tubes; the water dares you to jump in.

History
The Egadi Islands have been strategic since antiquity—the Battle of the Egadi Islands (241 BCE) ended the First Punic War—and Favignana’s tonnara shaped local economy for centuries.
Conservation
The Egadi Marine Protected Area restricts fishing and anchoring in many zones; follow crew directions and use reef-safe products to reduce impact.
