Riserva Naturale di Capo Gallo — Attraction in Palermo

Where shall I start. We were planning on a relaxing beach day away from the crowds, as we like the more rocky beaches. We heard that Capo Gallo was the place for us, so we started our Journey. With a capital J. That was a bit more than just a 'relaxing beach day'. We started with trying to find a place to park (be prepared it's gonna be tough), but managed eventually. We embarked on an unexpected journey through the National Park and then while looking for a entrance to the rocky shore we ended up going on an insanely beautiful but intense hike through the stunning scenery. After a few hours we decided to turn back since we couldn't find a place to enter the beach, and perched ourselves on the rocky slabs close to the park entrance.

You won’t find any small beaches to take a bath! only one, a so small beach where under my feet and it is the head of a woman and up me head the feet of a man 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ So my valuation is only one start. These place needs firstly to be manage by a serious company who pay taxes, and explain that there’s is only one small beach and a nice beautiful landscape mountain/ sea. Riserva dello Zíngaro more...
