Naturist beach in Torre Salsa Reserve
A remote, officially tolerated clothing-optional beach within the Torre Salsa reserve. Accessible on foot from the main trail network, it offers privacy, natural scenery, and turquoise waters. The area remains undeveloped and peaceful—ideal for those seeking solitude or a naturist experience. Respect reserve rules and signage.
Cliff and natural beach area “Dama Bianca”
A lesser-known beach and clifftop area within the reserve, called “Dama Bianca” (White Lady). Accessible via a short trail from the Dama Bianca access point, this spot features chalky white cliffs, golden sand, and tranquil views — ideal for photography and peaceful beach time.
The namesake of the reserve, this weathered 16th-century coastal watchtower was once part of Sicily’s early warning system against pirate raids. Today it’s a scenic ruin perched on a promontory above the sea, offering sweeping views of the coastline and beaches below. Reachable via footpaths through the reserve’s dunes and cliffs.
