Best beach in Cicily - San Vito Lo Capo

There are many great beaches in Cicily, but personally I cannot think of anyone that matches the one in San Vito Lo Capo (Cape San Vito). It´s sandy, it´s long (kilometers) and the whole town is more or less in walking distance to the beach. SVLP is located in the northwestern part of the island, between Trapani and Castellamare del Golfo (appr 30 minutes drive to each).
Beware that the town is packed in the holiday season (July & August) and rooms can be difficult to find. In other words book in advance or expect to sleep in a tent.
Nuff talk, here are the pics to prove the statement.

This is an italian style beach, all included, apart from the cost of renting a sunchair, getting a piece of fresh cold coconut and well everything that can be given a price. But hearing the mamas shouting at the kids are for free.

The strange thing about the cost on the wonderful beach of San Vito Lo Capo is how regulated it is. It almost feels organised for some strange reason. Hmm, why one wonders.
Speaking of which (renting and costs that is), here is a image of our captain on a lovely boat trip to Scopello. Leonardo was steady as a mountaing and had salt running through his veins from all the years on the sea catching tuna. Now he had become tired of the blood and gladly toured the tourists for a magnificent sightseeing tour.

The best part with Leonardo was that he used his old fishing boat with a limited capacity. A good advice is to avoid the bigger sightseeing boats as they don´t give you the same personal feeling and the possibilty to take a dip whenever you feel like it. Like my wife did on the exact same spot as Catherine Zeta Jones did when they recorded Oceans Twelve in the same area.

If you feel the urge to book a stay in this picture perfect town you might want to check out my hotel review over at Tripadvisor to get the hard facts on hotels as well.
