Marsala's air quality benefits from its western Sicily position facing the Strait of Sicily, with consistent Mediterranean and Libeccio westerly winds providing reliable maritime ventilation across this major wine and saltpan city. Vehicle traffic on the SS115 and the surrounding Marsala DOC wine production and sea salt harvesting operations are the primary local sources, while Saharan dust intrusions periodically affect the western Sicilian coast throughout the year.
