Discover San Vito Lo Capo… from the sea. And see everything with new eyes.
When you think of San Vito Lo Capo, its turquoise waters, dream beach, and Monte Monaco overlooking it immediately come to mind. All true. But there is an even more exciting way to experience it: from the sea.
By boat, among hidden coves, silent caves, and cliffs plunging into the water, discover the most authentic soul of this corner of Sicily. It is the wild and relaxing side that few people know about. But once you try it… you will never forget it.
Why does seeing it from the sea change everything?
San Vito and its sea are inseparable. Sailing along the coast gives you a unique feeling: you get away from the crowds and noise and get closer to views that seem to be yours alone. In some places, the water is so clear that you can see your reflection on the seabed. And if you love swimming, snorkeling, or simply relaxing in freedom… this is the place for you.
Places not to be missed (seen from the sea)
- Cala Firriato: a discreet gem, crystal clear water, and smooth rocks. Perfect for a quiet break.
- Baia Santa Margherita: wild, wide, beautiful even from the shore. But by boat… it’s something else entirely.
- Cala Mancina: perfect seabed for snorkeling and cinema-like lighting.
- Tonnara del Secco: romantic, ancient, powerful. Stopping here at sunset is thrilling.
- Grotta dei Cavalli: accessible only from the sea. Inside, the play of light and colors seems unreal.
When to go and how long does it take?
From May to September, you’ll find ideal conditions: calm sea, excellent visibility. You can depart from different ports, but Castellammare del Golfo is perfect for a complete tour—perhaps also passing through Scopello and the Zingaro Nature Reserve.
Do you have the whole day? Perfect. Only half a day? That’s fine too. Sunrise and sunset are the best times to enjoy the sea in peace and spectacular light.
What to bring?
- Swimsuit, towel, and hat
- Mask and snorkel
- Water and some snacks
- Waterproof camera or action cam
- Music (if the boat has Bluetooth, take advantage of it!)
- How to organize everything easily
You have two choices:
- Guided excursion: relax, listen to interesting facts, and play it safe.
- Private boat (even without a license): total freedom, zero stress, maximum fun.
- From Castellammare, you can create a tailor-made itinerary: Scopello, Zingaro, and San Vito in a single day. A dream come true.
