Situated at the top of the Piazza Duomo, the cathedral was built in 1131 by King Roger II after he was saved from a storm at sea and safely landed in Cefalu. It is built in complex architectural style - Norman but carried out by Arab and Byzantine craftsmen. The facade is flanked by two large bell towers which can now be visited for a small fee - something I wish we had done. Entrance to the cathedral is free but you can also pay to get closer to the mosaics and to visit the cloister - worth the money. The entrance doorway is within three arches at the top of a flight of stone steps. The interior has 3 naves separated by columns made of granite and marble. The wooden ceiling has painted beams with an Islamic influence. High up in the apse is the most famous feature - the Byzantine mosaic Christ Pantocrator - this is stunning and definitely worth paying a few euros to get a more close up view. This work predates the mosaics in Monreale cathedral by 20 to 30 years. Surrounding this are mosaics of the Virgin Mary, Archangels and Apostles. You can now also visit the recently restored cloisters and you pass through several rooms before you reach this which are full of interesting paintings and religious artefacts.

Having visited Palermo, Trapani, Agrigento, Ortigia and Taormina, I have to say our last stop at Cefalu ultimately had it all. Lovely clean beach, clear water with few waves (ideal for little kids), charming streets and nice restaurants. Every other place excelled in one way or another, but Cefalu ticked all the boxes. Ideal even for a long weekend.
