Formica, Small Mediterranean island in Aegadian archipelago, Italy
Formica rises from deep blue waters between Levanzo and Sicily, featuring rocky shores and natural coastal formations along its perimeter.
The island formed part of strategic maritime routes during ancient times, connecting Sicily with North Africa through the Mediterranean trading networks.
The waters surrounding Formica contribute to Sicily's fishing heritage, supporting traditional tuna fishing practices in the Aegadian archipelago.
Access to Formica requires arranging boat transport from Favignana or Trapani, as the island lacks permanent infrastructure or regular ferry service.
Marine researchers study the diverse underwater ecosystems around Formica, where protected species thrive in the Mediterranean marine reserve.
