Telephone and internet connections are available. The Station for Climate Observations is connected to GARR, the Italian national computer network for universities and research.
The town of Lampedusa (about 5000 inhabitants) is located about 2 km South-East of the observation site. A power plant is close to town. A small airport is located on the Southern side of the island. There are routinely 5-6 daily flights; they become about 15 in summer weekend days. Small ships (fishermen, tourists) are present in Lampedusa; two daily ships from Sicily reach Lampedusa.
