Description

Property 1557152297 – FAVIGNANA

3 Bedrooms

Location and Surrounding Area
Located on Favignana, the largest of the Egadi Islands, this modern villa is the perfect retreat for a relaxing break on one of the Mediterranean's most beautiful islands. Surrounded by crystal-clear waters, the Egadi Islands comprise three tiny scraps of land, mostly untouched. Although a short distance from Sicily, arriving here feels like stepping into a different world. Designated a nature reserve since 1992, Favignana and the Egadi Islands offer visitors an unspoiled maritime heritage and pristine waters teeming with marine life.

Favignana, the largest of the islands, boasts a rugged and barren landscape. Along the jagged coast, the thin soil has been stripped away to expose the tufa rock beneath. The island is divided in two by a mountainous ridge, with its highest point being Monte Santa Caterina, crowned by a fort built by the Normans and expanded in the 17th century by the Spanish. Forgotten for centuries, Favignana’s destiny is intrinsically tied to the surrounding blue sea, which shapes the life and culture of the islanders.

Historically, fishing and tuna were the mainstays of the island’s economy, but as fish stocks decline, tourism has grown increasingly important. The surrounding sea, washed by currents that keep the waters clear, reveals its treasures to visitors through boat trips and scuba diving. A boat ride around the island is a must, offering the chance to admire the breathtaking landscape of coves and crystalline waters. In the evening, indulge in local gastronomic specialities such as couscous and, of course, tuna prepared in a variety of ways.

Close by are the other two islands in the archipelago. Pack some provisions and take a boat to Levanzo, the smallest island, known for its pebble beaches and the Grotta del Genovese, where remarkable Paleolithic-era paintings can be admired. Explore Marettimo, the wildest and most unspoiled of the islands, partly due to the absence of cars. Marettimo is criss-crossed with walking paths leading through a harsh, barren limestone landscape to bays of extraordinary beauty.

Property 1557152297 is 40 km from Trapani Vincenzo Florio Airport and 111 km from Palermo Falcone Borsellino Airport. The villa is 1 km from Cala Azzurra Beach, 1 km from Bue Marino Beach, 1.7 km from Cala Rossa Beach, 5.8 km from the Castle of Santa Caterina, 11 km from Levanzo, 27 km from Trapani, 35 km from Marettimo, 53 km from Marsala, and 134 km from Palermo. The villa is just 5 km from the centre of Favignana, where all essential services are easily accessible.
