For a while, we thought of Sardinia and Crete (Greece) but ended up with Sicily because of the cheap prices for both flights and accommodation. Let\u2019s just say we were not disappointed one bit: we had a great time in Sicily chilling on the many beautiful beaches of the island but also were taken centuries back in time with its impressive Greek archeological sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We landed in Palermo and visited the southern part of Sicily (Marinella di Selinunte, Vallei di Templi, Agrigento, Eraclea Minoa) and the north-west (San Vito Lo Capo, Scopello, Castellammare del Golfo and Zingaro nature reserve). It\u2019s a pity we didn\u2019t see the east (Syracuse, Mont Iena..) but for this, we would have needed at least one extra week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read below for our full Sicily trip report and don\u2019t forget to check out our&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/legendarytripsbackup.kinsta.cloud\/gallery\/beautiful-sicily-photos-1-week-itinerary-by-ak\/\">photo album<\/a>!

in Palermo. After landing in the afternoon, we picked up the rental car (a Peugeot 107, although we were hoping for one of these nice Fiat 500s like we had in&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/legendarytripsbackup.kinsta.cloud\/trip\/tuscany-italy-romantic-2-weeks-by-ak\/\">Tuscany<\/a>) and headed to Marinella di Selinunte. This charming seaside town is located in Southeastern Sicily about one hour away from Palermo. The drive was pleasant although we quickly discovered the reckless driving style of Sicilians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We stayed at the B&amp;B Il Tempio di Hera, which is located near the city center and the archaeological Greek ruins of Selinunte.<br>The days from Saturday to Tuesday could be summarized in this lazy yet melodious French word inspired by Italian: farniente (fare Niente means to not do anything). Every day we chilled on the beach all day, reading and swimming. We only left the beach for some delicious pasta, pizza, or arancini at lunchtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening we exclusively ate the most delicious local fresh fish. We highly recommend two restaurants: Boomerang and Frescomare. Both offer a very extensive 8-course fixed menu that will make you discover the best fish and seafood dishes of Sicily: sardines, whiting, red mullet, octopus, swordfish, mussels, and many more. Let&#8217;s just say we had so much fish that on Tuesday we actually had to go for a steak at the restaurant Lu Disiu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-place-2\">Day 5 &#8211; Morning: Scala Dei Turchi (Realmonte)<\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_aa417a-fa .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 5px;}.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_aa417a-fa .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init.kb-carousel-mode-align-left .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 10px 4px 0;}.kb-gallery-id-_aa417a-fa.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-_aa417a-fa.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius img{height:300px;}.kb-gallery-id-_aa417a-fa .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery kb-gallery-wrap-id-_aa417a-fa\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel kb-gallery-id-_aa417a-fa kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel kt-carousel-container-dotstyle-dark\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel-init kb-blocks-fluid-carousel kt-carousel-arrowstyle-whiteondark kt-carousel-dotstyle-dark\" data-slider-anim-speed=\"400\" data-slider-type=\"fluidcarousel\" data-slider-scroll=\"1\" data-slider-arrows=\"true\" data-slider-dots=\"true\" data-slider-hover-pause=\"false\" data-slider-auto=\"false\" data-slider-speed=\"7000\"><div class=\"kb-slide-item kb-gallery-carousel-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Scala dei Turchi, Realmonte, Sicily, italy\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy.jpg\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy.jpg\" data-id=\"4253\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/?attachment_id=4253\" data-custom-link=\"\" data-custom-link-target=\"\" data-sponsored=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4253 skip-lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy-440x293.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scala-dei-Turchi_Realmonte_Sicily_italy-600x399.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Scala dei Turchi (Realmonte)<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Wednesday, feeling perfectly relaxed after four days on the beach, we decided it was time to discover the beautiful spots that Southern Sicily has to offer. We took the car and started with Scala Dei Turchi, a beautiful rock formation on the coast of Realmonte. Scala Dei Turchi is made of marl, which gives it this very bright white texture. Although we were there at 10:30 AM it was already quite busy. We still had a nice time swimming and laying in the sun on the rocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good to note: if you follow the coast west of Scala Dei Turchi, you will see some beautiful sandy beaches. It didn&#8217;t look possible to access these beaches by descending from Scala Dei Turchi but there should be a way to go there by following the normal road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-place-3\">Day 5 &#8211; Afternoon: Valle Dei Templi (Agrigento)<\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_2cf548-14 .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 5px;}.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_2cf548-14 .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init.kb-carousel-mode-align-left .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 10px 4px 0;}.kb-gallery-id-_2cf548-14.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-_2cf548-14.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius img{height:300px;}.kb-gallery-id-_2cf548-14 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery kb-gallery-wrap-id-_2cf548-14\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel kb-gallery-id-_2cf548-14 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel kt-carousel-container-dotstyle-dark\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel-init kb-blocks-fluid-carousel kt-carousel-arrowstyle-whiteondark kt-carousel-dotstyle-dark\" data-slider-anim-speed=\"400\" data-slider-type=\"fluidcarousel\" data-slider-scroll=\"1\" data-slider-arrows=\"true\" data-slider-dots=\"true\" data-slider-hover-pause=\"false\" data-slider-auto=\"false\" data-slider-speed=\"7000\"><div class=\"kb-slide-item kb-gallery-carousel-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Valle dei Templi, Agrigento, Sicily, Italy\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-id=\"4255\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/?attachment_id=4255\" data-custom-link=\"\" data-custom-link-target=\"\" data-sponsored=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4255 skip-lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy-440x293.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Valle-dei-Templi_Agrigento_Sicily_Italy-600x399.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Valle dei Templi (Agrigento)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After Scala dei Urchi we drove to Vallei dei Templi (Valley of Temples) in Agrigento.

Another important archeological site of Ancient Greater Greece, Eraclea Minoa is a beautiful village with one of the best beaches we have seen in Sicily (see a photo&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/kevinlegall\/15414691045\/in\/set-72157648235216756\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-place-3\">Day 6: San Vito Lo Capo<\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_9c0718-26 .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 5px;}.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_9c0718-26 .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init.kb-carousel-mode-align-left .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 10px 4px 0;}.kb-gallery-id-_9c0718-26.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-_9c0718-26.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius img{height:300px;}.kb-gallery-id-_9c0718-26 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery kb-gallery-wrap-id-_9c0718-26\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel kb-gallery-id-_9c0718-26 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel kt-carousel-container-dotstyle-dark\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel-init kb-blocks-fluid-carousel kt-carousel-arrowstyle-whiteondark kt-carousel-dotstyle-dark\" data-slider-anim-speed=\"400\" data-slider-type=\"fluidcarousel\" data-slider-scroll=\"1\" data-slider-arrows=\"true\" data-slider-dots=\"true\" data-slider-hover-pause=\"false\" data-slider-auto=\"false\" data-slider-speed=\"7000\"><div class=\"kb-slide-item kb-gallery-carousel-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Beach at San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily, Italy\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-id=\"4250\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/?attachment_id=4250\" data-custom-link=\"\" data-custom-link-target=\"\" data-sponsored=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4250 skip-lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy-440x293.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Beach_San-Vito-Lo-Capo_Sicily_Italy-600x399.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>San Vito Lo Capo<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Thursday we left Southern Sicily and Marinella di Selinunte for San Vito Lo Capo in the northwestern part of Sicily. San Vito Lo Capo is famous for supposedly having the best beach in Sicily. This is certainly true: the beach of San Vito Lo Capo is just marvelous with the finest white sand you could ever imagine. Unfortunately, because of a rebellious son, the picture I took of San Vito Lo Capo doesn&#8217;t do much justice to the beauty of its beach and the mountain range that surrounds it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>San Vito Lo Capo is not Sicily&#8217;s best-kept secret and, thus, is very crowded: we were there on a weekday at the end of September around 10:30 AM and yet it was already difficult to find a quiet place on the beach near the water. Nonetheless, this is a breathtaking spot that should be on any Sicily itinerary!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We were lucky to visit San Vito Lo Capo while the famous city&#8217;s annual Couscous fest was taking place so we had some nice chicken couscous for lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We then headed to Castellammare del Golfo where we had booked a very nice residence (Lu Baruni) located between the city center of Castellammare del Golfo and the village of Scopello. In the evening, as part of our fish rehab, we had burgers with Sicilian wine (Nero d&#8217;avola) at Cantina Aurelia Wine Bar and gelato (ice cream) for dessert at Gelateria Vernaci.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-place-3\">Day 7: Riserva Naturale Dello Zingaro<\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_201382-4a .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 5px;}.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_201382-4a .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init.kb-carousel-mode-align-left .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 10px 4px 0;}.kb-gallery-id-_201382-4a.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-_201382-4a.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius img{height:300px;}.kb-gallery-id-_201382-4a .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery kb-gallery-wrap-id-_201382-4a\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel kb-gallery-id-_201382-4a kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel kt-carousel-container-dotstyle-dark\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel-init kb-blocks-fluid-carousel kt-carousel-arrowstyle-whiteondark kt-carousel-dotstyle-dark\" data-slider-anim-speed=\"400\" data-slider-type=\"fluidcarousel\" data-slider-scroll=\"1\" data-slider-arrows=\"true\" data-slider-dots=\"true\" data-slider-hover-pause=\"false\" data-slider-auto=\"false\" data-slider-speed=\"7000\"><div class=\"kb-slide-item kb-gallery-carousel-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Riserva naturale dello Zingaro, Sicily, Italy\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-id=\"4252\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/?attachment_id=4252\" data-custom-link=\"\" data-custom-link-target=\"\" data-sponsored=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4252 skip-lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy-440x293.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Riserva-naturale-dello-Zingaro_Sicily_Italy-600x399.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Riserva naturale dello Zingaro<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brace yourselves for the highlight of our trip to Sicily in 1 week: Riserva Naturale Dello Zingaro. Lo Zingaro Nature Reserve is located exactly between Castellammare del Golfo and San Vito Lo Capo. Therefore, at some point plans were made to build a motorway to join the two cities. Luckily, a strong mobilization prevented the project from happening, and instead, the first natural reserve of Sicily was created in 1981.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>La Riserva Naturale Dello Zingaro is an amazing place with hiking trails for all levels. The coastal way is especially beautiful with many pristine beaches and charming creeks blessed with the clearest blue water. We started hiking around 10:00 AM from the south entrance which is located about 15 minutes by car from Castellammare del Golfo, right after the village of Scopello. The total hike from south to north is 6 km with a very small elevation. It&#8217;s not a circuit so you have to retrace your steps, which results in a total hike of 12 km. Not bad for a sports parenthesis on this beach holiday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a lazy hike though with a lot of swimming breaks. We stopped on the way to the north of Zingaro at Calla della Disa (picture) and Cala dell&#8217;Uzzo and on the way back at Cala Marinella and Cala Berretta. Cala Tonnarella dell&#8217;Uzzo, the nearest beach from the north entrance, also looked amazing with its fine sand but there were too many people so we didn&#8217;t stop. We finished our hike around 15:30 and had some late lunch in Scopello. If we had more days to spare we would certainly have spent more time in Zingaro and explored the interior trails of the nature reserve, likely more generous in flora and fauna &#8211; the humid microclimate of Zingaro is a haven for more than 650 plant species and at least 39 bird species.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the evening we had dinner at L&#8217;Isola del Gusto in Castellammare del Golfo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-place-3\">Day 8 &#8211; Morning: Scopello (Village)<\/h3>\n\n\n<style>.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_e76bc3-30 .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 5px;}.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel.kb-gallery-id-_e76bc3-30 .kt-blocks-carousel .kt-blocks-carousel-init.kb-carousel-mode-align-left .kb-slide-item{padding:4px 10px 4px 0;}.kb-gallery-id-_e76bc3-30.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius, .kb-gallery-id-_e76bc3-30.kb-gallery-ul.kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel .kt-blocks-carousel figure .kb-gal-image-radius img{height:300px;}.kb-gallery-id-_e76bc3-30 .kadence-blocks-gallery-item .kb-gal-image-radius{border-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-advancedgallery kb-gallery-wrap-id-_e76bc3-30\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-ul kb-gallery-type-fluidcarousel kb-gallery-id-_e76bc3-30 kb-gallery-caption-style-bottom-hover kb-gallery-filter-none\" data-image-filter=\"none\" data-lightbox-caption=\"true\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel kt-carousel-container-dotstyle-dark\"><div class=\"kt-blocks-carousel-init kb-blocks-fluid-carousel kt-carousel-arrowstyle-whiteondark kt-carousel-dotstyle-dark\" data-slider-anim-speed=\"400\" data-slider-type=\"fluidcarousel\" data-slider-scroll=\"1\" data-slider-arrows=\"true\" data-slider-dots=\"true\" data-slider-hover-pause=\"false\" data-slider-auto=\"false\" data-slider-speed=\"7000\"><div class=\"kb-slide-item kb-gallery-carousel-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item\"><div class=\"kadence-blocks-gallery-item-inner\"><figure class=\"kb-gallery-figure kadence-blocks-gallery-item-hide-caption\"><div class=\"kb-gal-image-radius\"><div class=\"kb-gallery-image-contain\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Scopello rocks, Sicily, Italy\" data-full-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-light-image=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy.jpg\" data-id=\"4254\" data-link=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/?attachment_id=4254\" data-custom-link=\"\" data-custom-link-target=\"\" data-sponsored=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4254 skip-lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy-440x293.jpg 440w, https:\/\/www.legendarytrips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Scopello-rocks_Sicily_Italy-600x399.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/figure><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong>Scopello (village)<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Saturday morning we went to Tonnara di Scopello, the marvelous spot where you can observe from close those legendary rocks featured on many Sicily postcards (see main trip photo).

The beach of Castellammare del Golfo is quite huge and has sand unlike most of the beaches in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We then visited the centre of Castellammare del Golfo. The castle, the port, and the historic center are especially interesting. In the evening, we were lucky to find a nice place in Scopello for dinner &#8211; Bar Nettuno &#8211; where we had the most exquisite pasta of our Sicily trip (make sure to ask for them to the waiter as they are not on the menu).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the next day we got up early and flew back home from Palermo, feeling relaxed but, most of all, highly impressed by Sicily and the breathtaking
