Trapani is a medium-sized city near the North-West corner of Sicily.
Trapani is the perfect port, and fishing village, being set on a low peninsula stretching in an arc into the sea, the housing of the city melting into plains of salt pans, valuable to the regions economy. Beyond, the solitary plains dotted with windmills dating from the medieval era, lies the open sea stretching to the horizon, punctuated only by the beautiful peak of mount Erice and the Egadi Islands. Erice offers an incredible panorama which enfolds a millenary history as testified by the section of Punic walls which still surrounds it.
In Trapani and surroundings there are many nice beaches to visit.
Trapani has a small airport (Trapani-Birgi Airport). The airport is served by Ryanair, Meridiana and Air One.
