Levanzo and Egadi Islands
The island of Levanzo, the old Phorbantia (name which cames from a special kind of local spices) is the smallest of Egadi Islands, and together with Marettimo, it is the most preserved from the naturalistic point of view. Thanks to its mountainous ground it has preserved a lot of different endemic vegertables species (about 400).
Levanzo has in fact an area of just 6 kmq, practicable from nord to south by only one little coutry road . The small and picturesque town, situated in the inlet of Cala Dogana, is a typical fishermen village, very similar to the settlement situated in other places of the mediterranean area (for example in Greece)
Wikipedia describes it like this:
“The town is composed by a group of houses on a small port that, as a fisherman said, is unable to give shelter to the boat that are carried away by the sea in a storm day and it is 15 km far from Trapani. It is devoid of carriage roads, except a small stretch of an asphalt road that conducts to the Faraglione beach. It isn't a disadvantage, but the best contribution to preserve its beautiful landscape.
