The Pelagie Islands, located in the Mediterranean Sea south of Sicily, offer a tranquil escape from mainland Italy with crystal-clear waters and unspoiled natural beauty. This small archipelago consists of three main islands: Lampedusa, Linosa, and the uninhabited Lampione. Lampedusa, the largest island, features stunning beaches including the famous Rabbit Beach, often ranked among the world's best beaches with its white sand and turquoise waters. Nature lovers will appreciate the Lampedusa Marine Protected Area, home to sea turtles that nest on the island's shores each summer. The volcanic island of Linosa presents a stark contrast with its black sand beaches and colourful houses. During summer, the islands host various religious festivals, including the Festa della Madonna di Porto Salvo in August, featuring processions and celebrations. Visitors can easily travel by ferry from Sicily, with regular connections from Porto Empedocle, making these islands an ideal addition to a broader Italian adventure.
