Pelagie Islands Hotels - Sicily

The Pelagie Islands are closer to Africa than to Italy, approximately 200 kilometers from Agrigento. The name of the islands is derived from the Greek word, meaning islands in high seas. The archipelago is comprised of Lampedusa, Linosa and Lampione.

Lampedusa is the largest of the three, whilst Lampione is uninhabited, with the only manmade construction being the Lighthouse. The great tourist attraction of the Pelagie Islands is its incredibly clean waters, perfect for diving enthusiasts, who can admire close up the numerous marine species including lobsters, posiedon fish and the extremely rare Caretta caretta turtles.
