San Vito Lo Capo Beach
Spiaggia di San Vito Lo Capo
One of Sicily's most beautiful sandy beaches, a three-kilometre crescent of white sand with Caribbean-coloured water, backed by Mount Monaco.
San Vito Lo Capo is a holiday town at the northwest tip of Sicily. Its roughly 3-kilometre crescent beach has fine white sand and shallow, clear water, and it is backed by the steep Mount Monaco. The beach is frequently named one of Italy's best. The town has neat whitewashed houses, and its main street is lined with restaurants and ice cream shops. Every September it hosts the International Couscous Festival. Nearby are the northern entrance of the Zingaro Nature Reserve and the small bay of Macari. The town is about 40 km from Trapani, and summer buses take about 1 hour.
