Latest reviews on Favignana island's beaches

Calamoni beach
10 Darius Vance Walker

We absolutely adore this place. We make it a tradition to visit towards the end of May and the beginning of June. It's never overcrowded, which we appreciate. The owners are incredibly friendly, and the prices are reasonable.

Lido Burrone beach
6 Zyloq.

This particular beach fails to stand out in any particular way.

Cala Grande beach
2 Zalika

The prime stretch of this shoreline, which is also the only sandy area, is occupied by a hotel that blasts music starting from the early hours of the day during the summer season. This leaves a small, rocky, and slightly malodorous cove filled with seaweed for non-guests to utilize. Moreover, the hotel does not offer any rental services for sun beds or parasols. It is advisable to explore other beach options.

Praia Beach (Favignana)
10 Kerem Yılmaz.

Upon your arrival at the beach, you can swiftly bask in the sun and acquire a beautiful tan. The warm rays of the sun will envelop you, providing the perfect opportunity to soak up some vitamin D and enjoy the picturesque scenery. The beach offers an idyllic setting for relaxation, allowing you to unwind and recharge your batteries. With the gentle sound of the waves lapping at the shore, you'll feel at peace and connected to nature. Don't miss out on the chance to experience the wonders of the beach and all it has to offer.

Spiaggia di Marasolo
6 Nico VioTech Romano

This beach has stunning scenery, but unfortunately, the shoreline is marred by an overwhelming presence of deceased seaweed. The abundance of algae not only detracts from the beauty of the coast, but also pollutes the water.
