Favignana is the greatest of the islands Egadi, fragments of Africa that are found in the extreme western point of Sicily. The Greek called the island Aegusa but the island was named Favignana after the wind Favonio during the Middle Age. It looks like a big butterfly alighting peacefully on the Mediterranean waters. These waters still evoke historical and mythical episodes. Those who reach Favignana first notice the elegance and the lightness of Palazzo Florio (1876), symbol of the island. You can start your tour around the town from here and following the main street you will reach the heart of the island's life, Piazza Matrice, where anything happens. On the right of the square you can penetrate into the S. Anna neighbourhood, the most ancient nucleus of the town. Here, among the simple houses built in tuff, there are wonderful hypogeum gardens. Favignana is the most frequented island. It has many hills, a rich vegetation and amazing coastal strips such as Cala Rossa. Other sites to see are the Bue Marino cave, Punta Fanfalo and Cala Grande.

Levanzo, the Roman "Phorbantia" lies 3 miles from Favignana and is the smallest Aegadian island. The white limestone and the green Mediterranean vegetation colour this isle (5 km2) which is rich in rocks rising vertically above the sea where numerous grottos lie at their base: Crollata, dei Porci, di Cala Tramontana, di Punta Capperi where prehistoric men lived and hunted the migratory birds populating the island. These animals still represent a natural wealth that deserves protection and respect.

Marettimo, the ancient "Hiera" is a sea jewel that broke away from Sicily 600 thousand years ago and now lies 21 miles from its coast. From the 686 metres of Pizzo Falcone the rocky slopes fall perpendicularly into the sea. This island has a ragged coastline and is covered with a rich and varied vegetation of more than 500 rare botanical species as well as unique ones. The island has a beautiful nature environment: uncontaminated shorelines such as Cala Bianca, Bombarda caves, Pizzo Falcone and Pizzo Capraro.
