City Travel Guide – Cefalù Sicily
The stories we made in Cefalù are ones for the book. It is definitely charming and one of the island’s treasured villages. Its medieval flair is evident by the narrow brick lane leading to its historic centre, a labyrinth of small centenarian churches and renovated old houses.
From Cefalù beach, one will wonder if they are looking at a perfectly depicted painting. All elements to make it exquisitely beautiful is there. The dramatic sky is often reflecting its cobalt blue colour into the Tyrrhenian Sea. Someone is daydreaming, but that rocky mountain seems like it was positioned there for a reason. It is poetically framing the picturesque town of Cefalù with half of the cathedral slightly peeking. The rows of nearly worn houses match with their same red brick roofs give the sight a unique character.
Map Location
Cefalù is a seaside village, a few kilometres away from Sicily’s capital, Palermo. It is also one of the region’s major points of interest so many tourists come here year after year, especially during the warmer seasons. To reach it from the Falcone and Borsellino Airport, you can rent a car or hire private transfer services. By public transport, the ideal option is to take the train from Punta Raisi station to Palermo Stazione Centrale and change the train to Cefalù station. The train ride will take around less than 2 hours.
