Favignana

The most lively island of the Egadi archipelago is Favignana, boasting 33 km of stunning coast line that occasionally stretches to small sandy beaches. The ideal way to discover this butterfly shaped island is by bicycle. There are several places in the town where you can rent out a bike (look for 'noleggio bici') for a very low fee.

Favignana is mainly flat with wide fields, only right in the middle the mountain Monte Santa Caterina sticks out (314 m). There are few boat excursions available, to be booked right at the port. Swimmers should head south as there is a lovely beach, the Lido Burrone. Bars and restaurants are serving mainly seafood dishes.

Favignana can be reached by ferry from Trapani and Marsala.
