L'Area Naturale Marina Protetta Tavolara - Punta Coda Cavallo

Reviewed By janbmnorge - Oslo, Norway

in order to get there, you would need to jump on the boat that sail from Porto San Paolo marina.. tickets are available in the ticket purchase section on the right.. once you're there, you may enjoy a good food in the restaurant, sardinian style of course or just go for hiking, in case you're freediver/snorkeler I'd recommend to walk across the island and straight under the mountain there is a beach, almost empty, clean water and pretty deep too. a lot of sealife there.

Riserva Naturale dello Zingaro

Reviewed By V8981UNdanm - Tel Aviv, Israel

In this part of Sicily, this Reserve is definitely a place you must see. One of the reason being that Tonnara di Scopello has become a too expensive place for what it offers (just looking at the location of the last the scene of Ocean 12 is not worth 8 euros per person). You can visit this reserve by walking all the way from the Southern Entrance till the Northern one (or the other way around) and this will take you more than 3 hours, depending on your fitness and pace. You can also simply reach the closest beach from the chosen entrance, whether Southern or Northern, which will be much shorter and therefore easier. Especially in Summer when the heat between 10am and 4pm might be too high and even dangerous if you do the walk without a hat, sun screen and especially 2 liters of water at least (good walking shoes are also required of course). I'd recommend strongly, if you're not fit enough, getting from the Southern entrance and walk 20 minutes till Cala Capreria which is literally a hidden gem. Just check the weather before to enjoy the incredible blue shades of the sea, and try to avoid weekends, otherwise it'll be overcrowded. On the other side of the North-West part of Sicily you'll have Erice which is also really worth your time. These 2 attractions should not be missed.

Parco delle Cascate

A few kilometres from Verona, the ancient hamlet of Molina is waiting for you to give you a break and enjoy the surrounding nature and culture in a magic atmosphere. The Waterfall Park is the perfect place for an excursion in the lush vegetation, between vertiginous walls of bare rock, large caves and pounding waterfall. The opportunity to choose between three routes (green, red and black) makes the park a suitable destination for all ages and needs. Don't forget to visit the ancient mill of the 17th century and Molina, the characteristic hamlet of stone where you can buy typical local products.

Made the Red circular with a nine years old and 3.5 years old girls, they really enjoyed it. It’s not an easy trail: be prepared to walk down from the parking about. 15 min, than you enter and you start by descending a lot. But the view worth it, most of it is in shedding area, and the waterfalls makes it cooler. Two main attractions: one is the swing in waterfall n. 17 in the map and one with omega with was inoperable (June 4). One of the best trails we had with kids. Definitely worthy for half day trip if you are in east Garda lake or near Verona.
