Our boats are the largest and fastest motor ships among those available in the quay of Trapani. The approximately 40 minutes of coastal navigation are comfortable and pleasant thanks to the comfort of the motor ships. During the navigation, you will admire the landscape and listen to the explanation of every detail and curiosity about the islets that you meet leaving the port of Trapani, with destination Favignana.
First step: Favignana (2h stop off)
All the islands show the best of themselves through the sea, but the beauty of striking small villages is not to underestimate. These small villages rise in 3 minutes walk from the port.
During the 2 hours stop off, we suggest to our guests the following alternatives:
- Walking between traditions and nature: our guide will take you through the streets of Favignana.
- Bike tour*: it’s possible to rent a bike nearby the point of the motor ship mooring.
- Visit Stabilimento Florio (Florio’s Factory)*: the old Favignana tunas factory, owned by the famous Florio family in the past, is one of the must-see places. The 2 hours stop-off allows participation in the guided tour of the museum.
- Egadilandia Tour*: this tour of 1 hour starts from the port and it will take you to the discovery of the island by little train.
- Wandering around the village streets. Spend the time on the island just going around among the narrow streets and squares of the center; you might taste some local product and dish or visit the beach in front of the port.

FAQ
Where and how do swimming stops take place?
All the swimming stops are subject to weather and sea conditions and, in general, to the unquestionable judgment of the Captain (Safety first!😉)
The swimming stops are carried out directly from the motorboat; therefore, mooring in the coves is forbidden, as expressly laid down by the official regulation of the Marine Protected Area of the Egadi Islands.
The distance from the coast varies from 20 mt to 60 mt, the depth of the sea varies between 3 mt and 8 mt.
The “Costa del Sole” motorboat has two ladders for access to the sea, and it is also possible to lower the gangway to sea level to use another access point to the sea. The “Intrepido” motorboat has two comfortable ladders for access to the sea.
What happens if I am late?
Maximum punctuality is recommended, and it is advisable to show up for boarding at least 30 minutes before the scheduled departure time: 09:30. The timetables in the itinerary section are indicative and may be subject to variations.
The exact time of return on board is communicated – several times – via the intercom during the excursion.
It is not possible to wait for late guests. In that case, the latecomer will have to organize his return to Trapani independently and at his own expense. (At least once a month … Make sure it’s not you !!!)
