Trapani lies on the western tip of Sicily, Italy. Jutting out into the Mediterranean Sea, Trapani has a long and inextricable love of the sea, and was named after the curved shape of the bay on which it stands, and upon which most of the folklore tales and traditions emanate. Trapani is a magnificent destination for those wishing to explore the best of Sicily, as well as enjoying some of the most sensational sunsets over the Mediterranean that you can find.
On the north-west coast of Sicily, holiday accommodation in Trapani will give you the chance to explore a corner of the island renowned for its outstanding natural beauty, where a volcanic landscape tumbles into the clear blue waters of the Mediterranean and a holiday apartment or villa in Trapani can be found nestling amongst a countryside of wooded hills, fragrant citrus orchards and peaceful vineyards - round that off with a situation close to one of the most stunning stretches of coastline in the whole of Sicily, holiday rental accommodation in Trapani couldn't easily be beaten if you have a love of the great outdoors.
In a charming coastal town where traditional customs exist happily alongside modern attitudes, holiday apartments in Trapani make the ideal base from where you can experience a cultural heritage that has its roots in ancient Greek and Roman times, the evidence of which is waiting to be discovered just minutes from your doorstep, along with more opportunities for recreation than you could enjoy in the course of one holiday - apartment and villa rentals in Trapani being within walking distance of the nearest beach where scuba-diving, sailing and fishing are popular activities, and close to a marine reserve and nature park to satisfy those hoping to investigate the rich variety of flora and fauna that exists throughout the island.
So next time you feel the need to escape to the sun - whether its with your loved one or the entire family - remember that you can be sure to find idyllic weather at any time of the year when you choose to rent holiday accommodation in Trapani.
Despite concentrated Allied bombing during WWII, there are still some phenomenal sites to explore in Trapani, mostly dating back to the 14th and 15th centuries, not all the way back to the town's medieval roots. The baroque stylings of the Church of Sant'Agostino, Santa Maria di Gesu, Basilica-Sanctuary of Maris Santissima and Fontana di Tritone are all well worth investigation from Trapani accommodation.
The coast of Trapani is a huge attraction. This region of Sicily provides some of the best coastal walking anywhere on the island, especially in the stunning saline nature park of Zingaro. The most celebrated beach to visit from a Trapani holiday rental is a short walk along the salt lagoon at San Vito lo Capo, a long, sandy beach that never gets crowded. Trapani is also a sailing centre of the highest quality, offering plenty of moorings as well as access into the Mediterranean and the Egadi Islands.
One of the most interesting times to visit a Trapani holiday home is during Easter, when Trapani's Easter Procession takes over the town. During this period, known as the ‘Misteri', townspeople parade religious statues through the streets for around 16 hours, with events, performances and feasts adding to the atmosphere. The summer music festival, the Luglio Musicale Trapanese, in July and annual tuna festival also draw the plaudits from visitors.
