    There’s a place in the southeast of Sicily where you can see two seas meeting each other. This is the place!
    The beach is clean and spacious, there’s also a bar/restaurant and some facilities. The car park is close to the beach

    Great place to have a beer and watch the sun set into the sea. Only qualm is that it's a little pricey but otherwise great.

    Visited the area near Capo Passero during our first scooter trip to Sicily. Portopalo is a quiet, nice place and the seafront area next to the island is very tranquil and offers nice views of the island surrounded by the deep blue sea.

    The free beach is rather small, with two lidos battling it out for space and the car parking is quite expensive at €3 per car. Also although the beach aapears relatively clean there are no facilities for rubbish or for smokers which is a shame.
    The roads are terrible and not very well signposted, if you have a small car you might worry about the state of the roads as they are rocky and sandy.
    However it is a beautiful sandy beach ideal for families because the water doesn't go over hip height for at least 500m out from the shore.

    First English/Barbadian review. Yes the beach is small. In comparison to some beaches in Barbados, it is not dirty. I've been twice to this beach in Portopalo di Capo Passero between 17 and 24 of September in 2018 and 2020 During this time there is a lot of seaweed but lmuch fewer people. Maybe 5 umbrellas. If you don't like seaweed in the water or on the beach, this is not the place for you. I grew up with seaweed in Barbados so I'm OK with it. The beach is sand mixed in with rocks not too much of a problem when you are swimming and not walking in the water. The wind can kick up quite a bit and there is the current that's a bit push and pull of the two seas meeting but you can safely swim here. Just take the usual open water precautions as there is no lifeguard. Highlight is Paolo with his granita made with real Sicilian Lemons. My Italian friend from the mainland say Sicilian lemons are the best.

    Nothing I could see that was overly exciting, though interesting 'plaques' at the entrance, and memorial to Italian losses in the First World War on the side of the building. Interior is simply and light.

    I was on many islands and in even more beach bars but this one is first, and I hope last, which is charging 1 euro for one moment of using public shower... I can imagine bussines, I can understand high prices at the bar, 5 euro 2h parkinng, it is clients choice, pay it or not, we did. But a shower!?!? Its cheap. A now imagine beeing there in family of 5... We left money for parking, we left money for drinks and snacks, we left money for shower and we left cabana nabana for good...
