Full itinerary: 8 hours between Favignana and Levanzo All stops of the dinghy boat tour

Full itinerary of the Favignana and Levanzo boat tour: Cala Rossa, Bue Marino, Lovers' Cave, Cala Minnola.

10:00 — Departure from Trapani port

The tour leaves from Via dei Gladioli, SNC, 91100 Trapani TP (5-minute walk from the old town). Daily departure at 10:00. Check-in 30 minutes before departure (by 9:30 AM). About 40 minutes to reach Favignana.

Favignana coves: Cala Azzurra, Bue Marino, Cala Rossa

First stop is Cala Azzurra, where turquoise water blends with fine white sand. We continue to Bue Marino, where ancient tuff quarries plunge into the sea. Then Cala Rossa, the most photographed bay in Favignana, with its striking contrast between reddish rocks and deep blue water. Final stop of this section: the Grotta degli Innamorati (Lovers' Cave), where sunbeams create dazzling reflections on the water.

Onboard Sicilian aperitif during the cruise

Between one cove and the next, we enjoy the Sicilian aperitif served directly onboard: pane cunzato (traditional Sicilian bread), fragrant arancine and a selection of drinks (Sicilian white wine, prosecco, Coca-Cola, iced tea, water). An intimate and relaxed experience to savour while gently rocking on the Egadi waters, without leaving the dinghy.

Stop in Favignana village and Florio Tuna Factory

We dock at Favignana harbour for free time in the village: a stop dedicated to those who want to explore Favignana village, visit the historic Florio Tuna Factory, browse the local craft shops or have lunch at one of the village restaurants.

Sailing to Levanzo

We resume sailing by dinghy towards Levanzo, the smallest and wildest of the Egadi Islands.

Cala Fredda and Cala Minnola on Levanzo

We explore Levanzo's eastern coast with stops at Cala Fredda, a wild and rugged bay with surreal blue waters, and Cala Minnola, where seagrass meadows turn the sea emerald green — perfect for snorkeling.

Return to Trapani harbour

Return to Trapani 8 hours hours after departure, same drop-off point (Via dei Gladioli, SNC, 91100 Trapani TP).

Note: The schedule may vary depending on sea and weather conditions.

Must-see coves Iconic spots of the Favignana-Levanzo tour

Cala Rossa: the most photographed bay in the Egadi

Cala Rossa is ranked among Italy's top 10 beaches. Its ochre-red rocks — shaped over two centuries of tuff quarrying — contrast dramatically with cobalt blue water. Accessible only by sea or via a steep footpath: a dinghy boat tour is by far the easiest way to reach it.

Bue Marino and the ancient tuff quarries

Bue Marino offers one of Favignana's most striking views: white tuff walls drop straight into the sea, carved by the quarrying that made the island famous between the 19th and 20th centuries. The seabed here is ideal for free diving.

Grotta degli Innamorati (Lovers' Cave)

The Grotta degli Innamorati is a small inlet accessible only by sea, where sunlight filters through to create magical colour effects — a classic spot for wedding and couple photography.

Cala Minnola: snorkeling above Levanzo's seagrass meadows

Cala Minnola is Levanzo's most beloved spot for snorkeling: its Posidonia seagrass meadows — protected marine plants — host rich biodiversity and create the emerald effect that defines these waters. Roman archaeological remains (amphorae and anchors from an ancient shipwreck) are also visible on the seabed.

Parking in Trapani

Check-in is located at Via dei Gladioli SNC, 91100 Trapani — Marina Vento di Maestrale pier. For those arriving by car, the area offers two main parking options.

The Port car park is the most convenient, about 250 meters from the pier (3-4 minutes on foot). It is a paid car park with hourly and daily rates and an automatic ticket machine at the entrance. Check on-site for accepted payment methods (typically cash, credit cards and contactless). This is the recommended option for those traveling with luggage, snorkeling gear, or children.

For those looking for free parking, Piazza Garibaldi is about 1 km from the pier (12-13 minutes on foot), with white-line spots not regulated by time limits. It is a budget-friendly but more distant option: free spots are limited in high season (July-August), we recommend arriving at least 45 minutes early.

Giornata stupenda e resa ancora migliore dallo skipper Donato , che oltre che portarci a vedere due isole fantastiche con un mare cristallino , ci ha deliziato con racconti e narrazioni su Favignana e Levanzo . La famiglia Florio , la tonnara e tanti altri posti . Ci ha accompagnato nelle stradine di Favignana facendoci proprio sentire a casa . Sicuramente è un’esperienza che rifarei e la consiglio assolutamente . Il mare , le grotte , le insenature e tutte accompagnate da aperitivi a bordo con delizie tipiche siciliane e del buon vino o birra . Grazie Donato per l’accoglienza e la professionalità.
