Port of Trapani

Trapani, Italy

The Port of Trapani (Porto di Trapani) is the commercial and passenger seaport serving the city of Trapani in western Sicily, Italy. It functions as a multipurpose harbour handling general cargo, roll-on/roll-off traffic, ferries, hydrofoils, cruise ships, fishing vessels and leisure craft. The port has played a central role in the area’s history from antiquity—when the harbour of ancient Drepanon developed along the north-facing shoreline—through its later transformation into a modern engineered port on the southern and eastern sides of the peninsula. It is administered by the Autorità di Sistema Portuale del Mare di Sicilia Occidentale. Ongoing redevelopment projects include major dredging, quay consolidation and waterfront-improvement works, funded in part through Italy’s National Recovery and Resilience Plan.
