From here you can take the ferry to the island of Mozia, a small piece of land facing the coastline between Trapani and Marsala. Mozia is a little-known archaeological site but worth the detour.

It is one of the most evocative locations in Sicily, truly unique in the panorama and in the spectacle of colors it can offer: we are obviously talking about the historic pier for Mozia, and the adjacent salt pans of the Stagnone di Marsala! The Arini and Pugliese Tourist Consortium, active with the motor ship Tanit (but also Fenice and Acquabus), carries out the connection with Mozia and the tour of the Stagnone. On board the Tanit (85 seats), it is possible to admire the magic of a place that has few equals. Not only for the historical charm that the island of Mozia brings with it, but also for the thousand stories that the lagoon seems to tell, which originate from its ancient and iconic mill and bounce on the white salt dunes, to reach the amazed eye of who watches this show.
