The Calette of Cefalù: where nature reigns
Just 1.5 km from the city center of Cefalù lies a stretch of coastline where nature reigns supreme: the Calette of Cefalù, a series of small white-pebble coves overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Located on the eastern side of the town, between the historic center and the enchanting Baia della Caldura, these rocky inlets are the perfect retreat for those seeking peace, beauty, and a direct connection with the sea. The landscape reveals itself step by step: short stairways wind through maritime pines, prickly pears, and agaves, leading you to a breathtaking view.
The Calette of Cefalù are a paradise for snorkeling lovers. The water becomes deep right away—clean, clear, and incredibly transparent. All you need is a mask to dive among the rocks, surrounded by damselfish, saddled seabream, and other marine wonders.
For those in search of tranquility, this is the ideal spot to relax far from the crowds. The gentle sound of waves breaking on the rocks, the sun caressing your skin, and the salty sea breeze will make you forget the passage of time. Our tip? Arrive early in the morning, when silence still reigns and the atmosphere is truly magical.
In the late afternoon, as the sun begins to set, it’s the perfect time for a boat excursion to the Grotta di Punta delle Caldure—a hidden spot, accessible only by sea, where a final dive will be the cherry on top of a memorable day.
And if you want to end on a high note, you can book an aperitif on a boat, returning at sunset. A romantic and intimate experience, perfect for those who love the sea in all its shades.
Are you ready to experience it all? Pack a beach towel, your snorkel mask, and a sense of wonder: the Calette of Cefalù are waiting to give you an unforgettable adventure off the beaten path.
