Trapani
About the destination
Trapani stretches along a narrow sickle-shaped promontory between two seas, with the Egadi Islands visible on the horizon. The Saline di Trapani e Paceco — a WWF nature reserve of ancient salt pans, windmills and seasonal flamingos — is one of western Sicily's most photogenic landscapes. A cable-car ride (or winding drive) up to Erice reveals a perfectly preserved medieval village perched at 750 m, with Norman castle ruins and sweeping views to Africa on clear days. Trapani's own centro storico is an underrated gem of Baroque churches, seafood markets and passeggiata culture.
