Riserva di Vendicari

Reviewed By 759elib - Sydney, Australia

This enchanting coastal nature reserve has well-marked walking paths to unspoiled beaches of golden sand, and a chain of salt lakes that between October and March attract over 200 species of migratory birds including herons, flamingo, cranes, black storks and pelicans. For a one-hour walk leave the main car park, turn left and pick up a free large scale map from the info booth soon your p0ath will reveal the Pantano Grande, along duckboards through a forest of bamboo down to a fine beach with pale golden sand dominated by the ruins of an abandoned tonnara, a tuna processing plant, dating back to 1920s where canned tuna was invented. Eventually you arrive to the stunning cliff-hugged bay of Cala Mosche, one of the most beautiful bays in Sicily
