Lido Acqua Azzurra

Reviewed By Love P - Milan, Italy

Nonostante il periodo delle alghe che abbiamo trovato ad Agosto il mare di certo non si fa dimenticare.
L'acqua in quegli sprazzi dove non c'erano le alghe e in alcuni giorni più tranquilli era sensazionale... da tornarci!

Riserva Naturale Orientata Monte Cofano

Reviewed By BobVirginiaUSA - Virginia USA

Our walk around this park was marked by a beautiful blue sea on one side and an ashen desolate landscape on the other. The water view really defied description and from above the shore line was a mix of blue and green hues only to be found in nature. Fire had burn off much of the vegetation and this desert-like vista was in stark contrast to the rolling waves of the Mediterranean. The trail itself could be challenging. While not particularly steep, there were a few stretches of loose rock which made descending a little tricky. Likewise, in parts the path consisted of half-buried rocks and boulders that demanded your attention while walking and high-stepping to negotiate. However, when we finished the hike at the eastern end of the park, a refreshing swim in the gentle sea awaited us.

Located at a nice square which is vibrant in the evening. Nice atmosphere and lots of activity around. Inside it is interesting and strange. Combination of modern and classic

Baia Santa Margherita, Castelluzzo di S.Vito Lo Capo

Reviewed By Corrado R - Vedano al Lambro, Italy

People always talk about San Vito lo Capo Beaches, and actually they are beautiful, but unfortunately super-crowded in August.
We had the opportunity to enjoy Baia Santa Margherita that features and amazing view on the Cofano reserve and at the same time has crystal clear waters and a tenth of the crowds.
Good idea to block cars in summer at the remote parkings and offer the tourists with a free train ride to the beach.

Cous Cous Fest

From food and wine show to international festival of cultural integration, it has become an event that celebrates friendship and brotherhood between peoples. It was in 1998, towards the end of the summer, when a small town in the province of Trapani hosted an event dedicated to cous cous, a traditional dish in the local area, which was widespread in the Maghreb but almost unknown in the rest of Italy. The aim of the event was to celebrate a simple ingredient, originally from the Mediterranean area, with an international competition that brought together different peoples, histories, traditions, cultures and religions – in the name of cous cous. That is how the Cous Cous Fest began, a Mediterranean food and wine show that made San Vito Lo Capo the world capital of cous cous, hospitality and multiculturalism. The journey began twenty years ago, and nobody could have imagined that it would evolve in such a surp

It is a very well organized cous cous festival held every September in the picturesque fishermen village of San Vito Lo Capo,Trapani province.The streets of the little village are full of people flocking from one stall to the other,tasting different types of cous cous (from Maghreb, Senegal, Tunisia, Brazil) and a whole variety of local Sicilian produce (from local cheeses and salami to sweets and icecreams).During the day tourists can busk in the wonderful sun on the long beautiful sandy beach and in the evening enjoy the open air Concerts and shows.Not to be missed!

Reviewed By NCR09 - Stamford, Connecticut

Absolutely hands down one of my favorite Beaches in Sicily thus far. The water was blue and as clear as a pool. Minimal waves, so you can bring a float and relax. I want to come here every time I visit family. You can rent lounge chairs for the day as well.

Caletta del Bue Marino

Reviewed By YuliaA2

Правильно говорят, что природа-лучший художник. Этот невероятной красоты пляж может и отпугивает кого-то своим диким видом (скорее всего тех, кто привык к all inclusive), но тем краше и притягательнее его природная самобытность. Цвета моря (именно во множественном числе) невозможно описать словами, это невероятное море нужно обязательно увидеть собственными глазами. Незабываемо!
