It’s not hard to understand why, with its picture-perfect crescent shores and warm, inviting waters. It’s just a short walk from the center of town and although you do need to pay in some sections, there is also an excellent public area where you can hire deck chairs and umbrellas, lie back, and imagine yourself in the bygone days of Cinema Paradiso… La Salinelle is another beach to consider, around five kilometers from the town center. It’s usually a lot quieter than Cefalù, so if you’re looking for a peaceful getaway, its eight kilometers of sand should do the trick. Lascari is also just a few kilometers away and its unspoild coastline offers magical views and blessed tranquillity. (This beach is also popular with naturists.) Capo Playa is a fantastic place to visit if you want to take in some water sports or just marvel at its 15 kilometers of beach. A combination of sandy and rocky shores, it’s usually fairly quiet (there’s a lot of space to stretch out) and just six kilometers from Cefalù.
