One of Sicily’s most famous beaches, with soft white sand, shallow turquoise water, and a dramatic mountain backdrop. The beach is ideal for families, swimmers, and sunbathers, and features both free areas and serviced lidos. The town behind it offers restaurants, shops, and summertime festivals.
Chiesa Madre- Santuario di San Vito Martire
It was built in the 14th century to house a chapel of Saint Vitus, and was fortified in the late 15th century to protect pilgrims from pirate raids. The current structure showcases a harmonious blend of military, religious, and civic architecture, with defensive walls, observation tower, rosone, and votive niches.
This protected area stretches along nearly 7 km of unspoiled coastline, with scenic hiking trails, quiet coves, and beaches lapped by crystal-clear waters. It’s home to a rich variety of endemic plants and wildlife, both on land and in the sea. Most beaches are accessible via steep but rewarding paths, making it ideal for nature lovers and hikers.
