Nautical Trade Fair (Agorà Sicilia)

The Palermo area's nautical fair

The Nautical Trade Fair, known in its recent edition as Agorà Sicilia, is the historic fair dedicated to pleasure boating held at the San Nicola l'Arena Tourist Port, a charming seaside village in the Municipality of Trabia, in the province of Palermo.

A return to the calendar

For years, the San Nicola l'Arena nautical fair was a benchmark for enthusiasts in the Palermo region. After a period of absence, the event has returned thanks to the organization of Mare Sud, with the patronage of the Municipality of Trabia and the support of the Sicilian Region. The inauguration is accompanied by a technical-institutional discussion on the management and governance of Sicilian tourist ports, signaling the importance that the nautical sector holds for the island's economy.

The seaside village of San Nicola l'Arena

San Nicola l'Arena is one of the most characteristic seaside villages on the northern coast of Sicily, dominated by its castle overlooking the sea. The setting of the tourist port, with its pier and beach clubs, offers fair visitors not only a nautical event but also a stroll along the promenade and the authentic atmosphere of a fishing village in the province of Palermo.
