The heat and chaos of August will now be far away, while September promises plenty of relaxation and the possibility of many outdoor activities. In this period, the sea, of a dazzling beauty, offers moments of true well-being, while the decidedly milder climate brings back the desire to walk paths and itineraries in the midst of nature and not only; in fact, many destinations, just a few minutes from San Vito Lo Capo, are just waiting to be discovered with calm and attention…  

Cous Cous Fest,  in September, a real food experience!

100% Nature

September is the perfect time to immerse yourself in the Zingaro Nature Reserve . Paths that smell of rosemary, lined with thyme bushes and lush dwarf palms, carob trees that capture your attention with their elegance. Zingaro is there to make you fall in love. Savour every corner, every fold, every sound. Wild and sweet at the same time. You won't be able to resist the call of its crystalline waters, it would be truly unforgivable!


A leap back in time in the Mangiapane cave

The Grotta Magiapane enchants and excites with its cluster of houses where the life of an ancient Sicily flowed. Curious tools in disuse, objects once of daily use, forgotten or unknown professions, family memories among which to browse in a surreal silence.
The small houses of the village emerge, with their ochre tones, from the largest Paleolithic cave of the Scurati cave complex, a true poem. Not far away stands the majestic Monte Cofano , a dolomitic rock overlooking the sea.

 

Mythical destinations...

After a dip in the sea, a dive into history!
In addition to its natural beauty, Sicily offers many artistic beauties. Choosing between medieval villages, Greek temples and fascinating historical centers can be a problem ... and here is a small list of the most interesting places to visit.


* Erice , included among the most beautiful villages in Italy, maintains its medieval charm intact and, walking through its streets, one magically finds oneself immersed in the history and myth of the goddess Venus.

* Segesta captures with its millenary charm. Enjoy the sunset between the 36 columns of the Doric temple that still stand intact and full of mystery. One of the best preserved in Sicily. The Greek theater, on the top of Monte Barbaro, will catapult you into the classical world. Don't miss, if you can, a show with a panoramic view of the Gulf of Castellammare, a unique experience.

* From the Greek period to the Norman period, the step is not short, but a few kilometers away from San Vito Lo Capo, the beautiful Palermo will show you, with its surprising monuments, one of the most beautiful artistic periods in history. The Arab-Norman itinerary has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2014.

* And finally we suggest you take a trip to the seaside village of Bonagia , perhaps at sunset. Overlooking its picturesque little port, Bonagia has all the charm of a place tied to the past. The tower of its ancient Tonnara stands proudly over the fishermen's boats and it is still possible to see the boats, called Muciare, with which the tonnaroti went to fish for tuna.
