The Tyrrhenian Sea is a marginal sea of the Mediterranean Sea, located in the western part of the Mediterranean basin. It is bounded by the Italian Peninsula to the east, the island of Sicily to the southeast, and the island of Corsica to the southwest. The Tyrrhenian Sea is connected to the Ligurian Sea to the northwest and the Ionian Sea to the southeast. The sea is named after the ancient Tyrrhenians, a people who inhabited the area around the Tyrrhenian Sea and Sicily.

The Tyrrhenian Sea is known for its rough and stormy weather, with strong winds and high waves. The sea is also home to several active volcanoes, including Mount Etna in Sicily and Mount Vesuvius in Italy. The Tyrrhenian Sea is an important shipping route, with several major ports located along its coast, including Genoa, Naples, and Palermo.

The Tyrrhenian Sea has a rich history, with evidence of human activity dating back to the Paleolithic era. The sea has been a vital trade route for centuries, connecting the Mediterranean world to the rest of Europe. Today, the Tyrrhenian Sea remains an important economic and cultural hub, with a diverse range of marine life and a unique geological history.
