Cala del Bue Marino

The Cala del Bue Marino,, which you can also visit by e-Bike, is a magnificent view from which you can admire the beauty of the Sicilian coasts. A true paradise that has received many awards and recognitions all well deserved from the moment it makes anyone who sees this cove fall in love with its wonderful crystal clear waters. The beach is made up of white pebbles and is free, although in summer it is necessary to arrive early enough if you want to have a place to yourself. The most beautiful moment comes at sunset, when the sky turns red and the reflection on the sea becomes a truly magical play of colors.

Borgo di Macari

Then we have the village of Macari, which we can see just before arriving at the beach of San Vito lo Capo and takes its name from the gulf from which it overlooks. This small glimpse is preceded by the mountains of the Riserva dello Zingaro and a wall of cliffs of unique beauty. It goes from the walls of Cala Mancina to Monte Cofano. To visit by e-bike at sunset is really beautiful.

It is possible to find both coves with pebbles and white sand beaches and what distinguishes this small village is its relaxed trend. Traffic is non-existent, there is no chaos in the city and the noises that follow. It manages to give dazzling sunsets from the Macari viewpoint where you will find yourself alone together with the beauty of nature. Moreover, it has recently taken a new name, " Makari ", coined from the Rai series recorded in this village as well as in other very suggestive points of Sicily.

Reserve of Zingaro

The Oriented Natural Reserve of Zingaro is the trekking destination par excellence. If you are in the western part of Sicily, you can't not go there. It is 7 kilometers of unspoiled nature starting from Scopello and ending in Castellammare del Golfo and, unlike the nature reserves that can be found in Sicily, it is the only one that does not have a coastal road, it will be essential to go trekking in a wild way.

The whole excursion lasts 4 hours but don't worry if you can't complete it: the extraordinary views are so many! The coves that follow one another are Tonnarella dell'Uzzo, Cala dell'Uzzo, Cala Marinella, Cala Berretta, Cala della Disa, Cala del Varo and Cala Capreria. Each of these beaches has its own peculiarities but the common denominator is the seabed rich in marine fauna as a protected area, the flora that embraces each cove, the pebbles and the water in shades of blue, azure and crystalline green.

You can decide to visit the most beautiful coves even with a boat excursion!

Tonnara di Scopello

Finally, we recommend the Tonnara di Scopello, another of the beaches near San Vito lo Capo, which deserves all the attention. Set between two stacks and bathed by crystal clear water, it offers a breathtaking view. It is a real trap now in disuse, but which has become an open-air museum in all respects. Each corner tells the story of this small glimpse with the watchtower right above the tonnara, which is essential to see approaching enemies. It was built in a tactical way to be able to look out and spot the passage of the tuna and be able to immediately get to work. The stacks and the trap of Scopello are truly heavenly and will take you on a journey back in time.

And it is even more beautiful from another perspective. By taking a boat excursion you will be able to see the magnificent coast with its stacks.
