Redfish

About

Redfish is a modern fishing‑tour vessel based in Marsala that sails daily across the crystal‑clear waters of the Egadi Islands—Favignana, Levanzo, and Marettimo. On board, guests witness traditional Sicilian fishing techniques, from ancient net‑laying to contemporary trolling, while enjoying a freshly prepared meal featuring the catch of the day. The typical three‑hour excursion starts with a hearty breakfast of local pastries and coffee, then moves into an adventurous fishing session. After the nets are let out, the crew retrieves them in early afternoon, and the seafood is cooked right on the ship—pasta with fish broth and a selection of fresh fish dishes. In the meantime, passengers can relax at picturesque coves such as Cala Rossa, visit the magical “Grotta degli Innamorati,” and stroll along the historic port of Levanzo. The highlight of a Redfish tour is the combination of natural beauty and culinary delight: the scenic coastline of the Egadi, the taste of freshly caught seafood, and the opportunity to sample local wines like the award‑winning “KIKE” and the iconic Marsala. The vessel’s environment‑friendly ethos—minimal impact on marine life and sustainable fishing practices—adds an extra layer of appeal for visitors who care about responsible tourism. Tours operate every day from 9:00 am until 6:30 pm. If you’d like to book, you can reserve a spot online or contact the crew by phone (+39 349 051 8257) or e‑mail (redfishpescaturismo@gmail.com). A reservation is recommended, especially during peak tourist season, but is not strictly required for off‑peak days. The return is typically around 6:30 pm, with guests enjoying local biscuits and a glass of Marsala as the sun sets over the Egadi horizon.
