Lampedusa in brief

Getting there

By air

Lampedusa airport (LMP): flights from Palermo and Catania all year, direct summer connections from the main Italian cities.

By sea

Night ferry from Porto Empedocle (Agrigento), about eight hours. A summer hydrofoil runs from the same port.

When to come

Period averages, not a forecast.

Rabbit Beach

A nature reserve: access is regulated and in summer Caretta caretta turtles lay their eggs on the sand.
