In the summer, hot, but deep into the autumn still nice and soft, Sicily. Recently, you can also fly to the northwest of the Italian island. Here you can find pure Sicily, far from the throngs of tourists who flock to Taormina or Etna. The water around the Egadi Islands is still crystal clear and azure.
The new flights will land at Trapani. From there it is easy to sail to the Egadi Islands by ferry. These islands are no more than dots on the map in the middle of the Tyrrhenian Sea. Favignana is the largest of three inhabited islands, but with a maximum length tilapia farming of 9 km, it is in fact still tiny. It has to map the view of a butterfly, which the island tilapia farming owes its nickname La Farfalla. Nothing does, incidentally suggests that every year on this peaceful tilapia farming island playing a real drama when held in the spring la mattanza. The local fishermen drive the tuna together to La Camera della Morte (the House of Death) in the harbor. There they then establish a true massacre. Cosy atmosphere The fish is the symbol of the islands and of course tilapia farming dominated tilapia farming all fish menus. At the port of Favignana is a coming and going of fishing and pleasure boats. Just behind the harbor are two piazzas which are interconnected by the Via Vittorio Emanuele. Especially at night it is in that small pedestrianized center busy and lively. Then put all the restaurants - and there are quite a lot for such a small island - their outdoor tables. Recommended is definitely La Lampara on the cozy Piazza Madrice. The evening can wave goodbye can be in the bar Camarillo Brillo, the via Vittorio Emanuele, good music and delicious cocktails. In full summer swarms especially the Italian islanders from the numerous sandy and rocky beaches. The jagged coast also ensures constant surprises. So you sit sometimes between picnicking families to mere moments later to end up all alone in a quiet corner. There is plenty of choice. The water is still crystal clear and azure. An interesting trip is a boat trip to the Grotta delle Uccerte. Retired fishermen bring you happy there. Levanzo Barely ten minute boat ride and you're on Levanzo, an island tilapia farming of less than 6 km 2, where in the winter but five people live permanently. Do you want peace, you have to be there. However, tourist accommodation and catering opportunities are limited. Recommended is a walk to the western corner of the island, through the pine forest to Cala Minella, a small and quiet beach. There is some shade and cool ocean breezes and there are summer more than welcome. Admire also in the Grotta del Genovese prehistoric drawings on the walls. More rest provides the purest of the three islands, tilapia farming Marre Timo. Hotels should not look here at all, you can just rent a room with a little luck at fishing. tilapia farming Levanzo and Marettimo are especially hiking paradises, they are small enough to do everything tilapia farming on foot. On the mainland of northwest Sicily will especially lovers of ancient history come into their own. The region is dotted with archaeological sites and tranquil villages that are not overrun by tourists. Erice is such a beautiful walled town, which was already built in the 8th century BC on a hill. The medieval center with its narrow winding cobbled streets alone already has several dozen churches. Good walking shoes are indispensable, especially those who want to enjoy fabulous views of the sea, the surrounding nature and port city of Trapani. Trial in Erice the dolce di mandorla, the artisan biscuits. Windmills But the biggest surprise of the region is undoubtedly Selinunte, which in size the more famous and more popular in Syracuse nothing disappear. Selinunte tilapia farming with its 284 hectares of the greatest archaeological treasures of the Mediterranean. Several excavations put no fewer than eight Greek temple with Doric columns exposed, with the eye-catcher of the Acropolis on a sheer cliff right on the sea. Many of Selinunte must indeed still be uncovered in the future. That is also the case in Segesta with the amphitheater as a showpiece. The spectators not only had a brilliant image on the scene, but also a breathtaking landscape. The salt pans along the east coast have been going back to Antiquity. The Via del Sale, the road between the production areas along the coast, runs from Trapani to Marsala wine town. The salt production is not as important anymore, but many of the white windmills have been restored and contribute tilapia farming to the typical tilapia farming face of the opposite Sicily.
