Raziščite Favignano
Favignana je največji od Egadskih otokov (obstajata še Levanzo in Marettimo), ki se nahajajo ob obali Sicilije, blizu Trapanija. Ti italijanski otoki so že dolgo turistična destinacija zaradi svojih razgibanih klifov, neokrnjenih plaž in bistre modre vode; celo ime se nanaša na prijetno topel zahodni veter, ki piha skozi otoke.
Potapljanje v Favignani je priljubljena zabava. Na voljo je več potapljaških centrov in potapljaških letovišč. Večina ponuja potapljaške tečaje od začetniških stopenj do profesionalnih kvalifikacij - nekateri ponujajo celo tehnične potapljaške specialnosti. Obstaja nekaj ladij s prenočevanjem na ladji, ki plujejo po Siciliji, vendar je pogosteje bivanje na otoku.
Ta majhen, a živahen otok ponuja številne potapljaške znamenitosti. V Cala Rotondi so jame za raziskovanje, na Levanzu pa so razbitine, zidovi, plitvine in celo arheološki ostanki.
