It's a proper Mediterranean escape: eight hours of swimming, snorkelling in the clearest water you'll find off Sicily, and time to wander Favignana's low-key town centre. The boat's crewed by a skipper and assistant, and you're fed local aperitivo fare while cruising past limestone cliffs and hidden coves. It's the kind of trip where you show up, get shown around by people who know the coastline, and spend most of the day in the water.
