Favignana is the main island of the Egadi Archipelago, located at the western end of Sicily, between Marsala e Trapani. Also called "Egadi's butterfly" because of its shape, Favignana is a renowned tourist destination, known for its natural bays and for the crystal-clear waters.
A boat tour is the best way to visit this pearl of the Mediterranean, perhaps even stopping at the nearby island of Levanzo. The boat trips to Favignana allow you to tour the island, stopping at the most beautiful coves and disembarking for a visit of the picturesque fishing village.

Favignana boat tour: exploring the main isle of the Egadi Islands
A boat trip to Favignana takes a full day and involves a complete tour of the island plus a stop to visit the village. One after the other, you’ll get to visit all the most beautiful coves in the area: Cala Rossa, with its fine, clear sandy beach; Bue Marino, with its historic tuff quarries; Cala Azzurra and its very clear seabed; and Cala Rotonda with its striking rock arch. You’ll be able to stop at each of these bays to enjoy a swim.
It is virtually impossible to resist the urge to take a dip and snorkel in the clear waters.
Toward the middle of the day, the boat tours include a stop for a couple of hours in the town center of the island of Favignana. Here you can get around on foot or rent bikes or scooters to reach panoramic spots amid unspoiled nature. We also recommend a visit to the Tonnara of Favignana, one of the largest in the Mediterranean.
Where to embark on a boat tour in Favignana
Boat tours to Favignana depart mainly from the ports of Trapani and Marsala. It takes 30 to 40 minutes of sailing time to reach the island’s shores, depending on the boat and weather conditions. Tours of the Egadi Islands also depart directly from Favignana, but in any case you have to reach the island’s port by ferry from Trapani or Marsala.
Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo
Levanzo and Marettimo are the other two islands of the Egadi archipelago. The former can be reached by a 20-minute boat ride from Favignana. Many tours include a stop at Levanzo and at the most beautiful coves such as Cala Fredda, Cala Minnola and Cala Faraglione.
Marettimo is the smallest and wildest of the Egadi Islands. It is quite far from the other two and requires almost two hours of sailing from Favignana. Being the most remote, this island has a special charm and is perfect for those seeking the utmost tranquility and wanting to keep off the beaten track of mass tourism.
Boat tour to Favignana: how much does it cost?
The price for a boat tour to Favignana depends on the type of boat and services included. For example, a day trip departing from Trapani costs 50 to 80 euros per person. In some cases, lunch on board or an aperitif of typical products is included.
Rates increase when it comes to private tours. Renting a sailboat for exclusive use costs 600 to 800 euros, depending on the period. Usually, private boats with skipper are reserved for small groups of 2 to 10 passengers.
Egadi Islands by sailboat: an unforgettable gift
A sailing trip to the Egadi Islands can be a perfect gift to celebrate an important occasion or to make your vacation in Sicily special. The lush nature of these islands, the beautiful coast and the sparkling colors of the water will be the setting of a wonderful day at sea in one of the most fascinating corners of the Mediterranean.

09 Aug 2022 | Egadi Star yacht day tour to Levanzo and Favignana with lunch
Beautiful swims
The admin was pretty easy and the tickets all available on the day. We set off on the ‘yacht’, which was really a motor boat, and sat upstairs. The announcements were quite hard to hear from the speakers but we arrived at our first swim destination which was beautiful. When we asked for our snorkelling kit which was supposed to be provided we were only given a mask and there were not enough for all. nnThese were really the only issues we had though. The crew on board were extremely helpful especially with one of our party who was a vegetarian. The wine was ok and the food was delicious. The swims were all in the most beautiful of clear blue seas and the 2 hours in Favignana were a chance to have a look around some shops and sit and do some people watching!nnAll in all a great day out. Special thanks to the ladies of the crew. You were both fantastic.

AMAZING Experience!!!
My family and I called it a perfect day. The boat is great (very fast too) and has enough space for a small group of 12 that goes on it, making it an intimate experience. Our captain Dino was so great, pointing out some fun facts along our expedition of the places we visited and making sure everyone was taken care of and having a great time. The calas we visited, which are mostly only reachable by boat, were incredibly beautiful and the towns very quaint. They also provide snacks, drinks & equipment for snorkeling on the boat. Would love to do this all over again-can’t recommend it enough.

Favignana and Levanzo excluded
Adventure that allowed us to visit the beautiful coves of Favignana and Levanzo in one day. Friendly and helpful skipper, he let us visit even more than expected and provided fresh food and drinks throughout the excursion. In addition, on the way back to the port of Trapani, he extended the route to a fishing boat that was sailing nearby, to allow us to taste the freshly caught prawns given to us by the very kind fisherman

Relaxing Day Exploring The Islands
We had a wonderful time exploring the beautiful seas. It was only 4 of us and my dog. They were very kind to let her onboard. We hopped around so many times I lost track of where we even went but we never felt rushed. If your looking for a relaxing day on a private boat then look no further. The crew was professional and helpful and went wherever we asked them to. Even climbing into a high cave. Really enjoyed our time.

Beautiful experience in a place in Sicily that the whole world envies us. Friendly crew attentive to our needs, excellent and characteristic lunch on board with a breathtaking view of one of the most beautiful coves in Favignana. The possibility of snorkelling is really the highlight of this tour because you have the chance to see the crystal-clear waters and seabed full of different species of fish.

amazing trip with amazing people
We enjoyed the day on the yacht really very much. The group was small, the crew was amazing and the food was incredible. We would definitely book it again. We made several stops to enjoy the water and had the chance to leave the boat and go around Favignana. The boat was great, possibilities for sunbathing places, shadow places and bathroom were on boat. Thanks to the crew for an amazing day!
