Top Muslim Travel Tips for Cefalù

Cefalu BW 2012-10-11 11-52-28 - The Byzantine mosaics in the Gothic Church

  • Climb The Rock (La Rocca) for great views of the red-roofed town and beautiful bay area as well as a visit to Diana's Temple (Tempio di Diana). Follow the brown signs to Tempio di Diana from the town's main street. You can get some great views from just half way up, but to reach the top and the ruins of the 4th century Tempio di Diana itself you will probably have to pay €3 at the entrance to the archaeological site. From there and the enormous Salita Sareceno staircase climbs up to the top, passing several other ruins marking the town's former hilltop position before the Norman conquest in 1063.
  • Walk 15 minutes East around the headland to the bustling tourist port, full of fishing boats and islets.
  • Visit the harbour - Piazza Marina.
  • Relax on the beach - one of the best in Sicily. Keep in mind that the beach is divided into different sections, some with umbrellas and beach chairs set up that you can rent. The price, from about €8 to 15, decreases the further you walk along the beach.
