Magaggiari Beach
The long stretch of golden sand between Terrasini and Cinisi, with shallow waters and clear sea: the favourite of families and locals.
The area
Terrasini
and its sea
A privileged position on the Palermo coast, among hidden coves, seaside villages and nature reserves.
300 metres away
The Caletta Verde
A walk of a few hundred metres along an evocative path through Mediterranean nature brings you to one of the most beautiful and distinctive coves in Terrasini.
Crystal-clear water, natural rocks and a sea of extraordinary colours: the perfect place for a refreshing swim or to enjoy the sun in an unspoilt setting.
Beaches and coves
The beaches of Terrasini.
Beyond the Caletta Verde just steps from the villa, the Terrasini coast offers some of the most loved beaches in the province of Palermo: golden sand, red cliffs and crystal-clear water a few minutes away by car.
Cala Rossa
Tall reddish cliffs streaked with white and an emerald-coloured sea: the most photographed inlet, perfect for diving off the rocks.
La Praiola
A small cove of pale sand reachable from the seafront, at the foot of Palazzo D'Aumale: shallow water, ideal for a quiet swim.
The town
What to see in Terrasini.
Just four minutes from the villa, the centre of Terrasini is a charming seaside town overlooking the gulf, with alleyways, fish restaurants and glimpses of the sea.
The literary seafront
A walk perched above the sea, with the sea stacks in the background and designer benches dedicated to Camilleri, Sciascia, Tornatore and Rosa Balistreri: best enjoyed at sunset.
Sicilian Cart Museum
Inside the 19th-century Palazzo D'Aumale on the seafront, the Regional Museum holds around seventy Sicilian carts and the area's archaeological and naturalistic collections.
The town centre and the Duomo
Intimate squares, shops and restaurants where you can enjoy fresh fish and the flavours of Palermo tradition, steps from the sea.
Capo Rama Reserve
Within the Terrasini area, a protected nature reserve overlooking the sea, among cliffs, watchtowers and Mediterranean scrub.
To discover
All around,
the most authentic Sicily.
Segesta and the Doric temple
The majestic Doric temple and the Greek theatre, isolated on a silent hill, less than an hour from the villa.

Sicily's Caribbean-like beach and its couscous, less than an hour away by car.

Trails high above the sea and coves of white pebbles, a paradise for hiking lovers.
