Directions

Cefalù is one of the most beautiful villages in Italy and is one of the most evocative destinations on the island. It is located on the northern coast of Sicily, in a strategic position, to say the least: about an hour from Palermo and Capo d’Orlando, on the A20 road.

The town is dominated by a monumental rock rising to a height of 270 meters, already known to the Phoenicians as the promontory of Hercules, on which stands the Temple of Diana, a megalithic building linked to the cult of water, as indicated by the nearby cistern dating from the 9th century BC.

Walk through the streets of Cefalu visiting the most beautiful attraction – Cefalù Cathedral. Eat breakfast or lunch snacks in Cannoli Cake shop, and sit on the terrace that the shop offers to see the views of the blue sea, sky, and waves just one level under You. Afterward, visit Molo di Cefalu, and slowly make Your way back to the car.
