Greek temples of Segesta or Selinunte
Sicily was once an important centre of Greek colonisation. In the 8th century BC, Greek settlers founded numerous cities on the island and brought with them their culture, religion and architecture . The many Greek temples in Sicily, such as those of Segesta and Selinunte, are impressive witnesses to this glorious past and impress with their imposing size, perfect proportions and artistic details. They tell stories of ancient gods, heroic legends and the lives of people over 2500 years ago.
salt fields of Marsala and Trapani
The salt fields of Marsala or Trapani are a unique natural spectacle. Salt has been extracted here using traditional methods for centuries. The glittering salt pools and picturesque windmills provide a breathtaking backdrop, especially at sunset.
By the way: Marsala is not only known for its salt - here you can also try the famous Marsala wine , a full-bodied liqueur wine that is appreciated worldwide.
Riserva Naturale Orientata dello Zingaro National Park
The Riserva Naturale Orientata dello Zingaro National Park is a true paradise for nature lovers. This unspoilt stretch of coast offers a spectacular landscape of rocky cliffs, hidden coves and fragrant maquis. The diversity of flora and fauna and the crystal-clear waters make the park an ideal place for hiking and exploring. But keep in mind that entry is not free. The standard ticket for one day costs 5 euros.
Beach day in San Vito Lo Capo
San Vito Lo Capo is a tip for all those looking for sun, sea and relaxation. With its fine, white sand and turquoise water, this beach is known as one of the most beautiful in Sicily.
Hike to Monte Cofano
A hike up Monte Cofano offers spectacular views and a real nature experience. The trail leads through varied landscapes, from fragrant pine forests to impressive coastal cliffs. Once at the top, you will be rewarded with a breathtaking panoramic view over the azure sea .
Experience culture in Erice
The medieval town of Erice sits high above the coast and offers a fascinating insight into the history of Sicily. The narrow, cobbled streets , historic churches and the impressive fortress tell stories from centuries past. You also have a beautiful view of the interior and the Mediterranean.
Hot springs near Segesta
The hot springs of Segesta are a little hidden in the middle of nature, are completely free and a perfect place to relax and unwind. The mineral-rich, hot water, which reaches up to 42 degrees, comes from the volcano Etna and has a beneficial effect in every season. The small river flowing alongside offers cooling off after a warm bath.
So, let's go to Sicily! We hope you have fun and see you on the water!
