Must-see attractions
Spiaggia di Cefalù
Tyrrhenian Coast
　　Cefalù's crescent-shaped beach is one of the most popular along the whole Sicilian coast. In summer it is packed, so be sure to arrive early to get a good spot. Though some sections require a ticket, the area closest to the old town is public and you can hire a...
Museo Mandralisca
Tyrrhenian Coast
　　This small, privately owned museum showcases a collection amassed by parliamentarian, archaeologist and natural-history buff, Baron Mandralisca (1809–64).

Salita Saraceni
Tyrrhenian Coast
　　An enormous staircase, the Salita Saraceni, winds up through three tiers of city walls in a 30- to 45-minute climb to the summit of La Rocca. From here you have wonderful views of the town below. There are two main access points, both marked by signs for 'Tempio di Diana':...
Il Castello
Tyrrhenian Coast
　　Apart from a few loose rocks and low crenellated walls, there is nothing left of Il Castello, a Norman castle built atop the old Arab citadel that once crowned the rocky peak above Cefalù. ...
