Levanzo is the smallest of the Egadi islands and can sometimes feel like a time machine, transporting its guests to a bygone age where motorized transport is rare, nature dictates the local diet and fresh water is hard to come by. Its small fishing village, containing just 220 inhabitants, sits at the entrance to the valley running south-north through the island. Levanzo is a steep, rugged island and supports little life. Levanzo is all about the simple pleasures in life and apart from eating a delicious meal and passing time in the harbour with the friendly locals, a walk and a swim is a delightful way to pass the time. A central path leads through the island’s valley where there are pine forests, some agriculture and a winery belonging to the Florio dynasty, while two coastal paths lead either way around the island. To the east, stony beaches can be reached on foot while a walk around to the west will take you to the big faraglione where you can swim at the same time as enjoying a view of all three Egadi islands.
