  • Family-friendly site on the outskirts of Cefalù with private beach
  • A 15-minute drive to Parco delle Madonie walks; 50 minutes to Palermo
  • Play area, sports facilities, bike hire and Cefalù shuttle bus
You may think that a campsite by the beach is something of a dream location… but why not go one better with a campsite that has its own private beach? That’s exactly what you’ll get at Camping Sanfilippo, on the outskirts of Cefalù on Sicily’s north coast. Yes indeed – this site has direct access to its very own stretch of beach, which has a mix of fine sandy areas and craggy rocks to climb on – and it’s all free for site guests to use. It’s all very handy for families who’d like to hang out at the beach, as you can easily mix up seaside time with hours spent at the play area or the multisports area (for five-a-side football, basketball, volleyball, table tennis or table football) – and all without the need to travel from the site. Of course, it is a wise option to leave the site from time to time, as this is a fabulous part of the world to explore, especially if you like beaches. There are several lovely sandy areas to visit nearby, and that’s all made nice and easy by the campsite’s partnerships with local agencies that hire out bikes, scooters and quads. If you’d like to venture a bit further, have a chat to the people at reception who can hook you up with organised excursions to the Aeolian Islands or other destinations in Sicily. Another handy feature of this site is the hourly shuttle bus that runs to Cefalù for city centre strolls and shopping. If you don’t fancy the journey, pick up supplies at the site’s mini market or grab a table at the bar to have cool drinks brought to you.

Liked: Traumhafter Campingplatz mit Kunstwerken Default (GPT-3.5) User Campingplatz Bewertung formulieren: traumhafte Anlage, sehr toll angelegt mit liebe zum Detail und mit viel Herz kunstvoll jedes Eck Gestalt. Der Campingplatz und der Sanitärbereich war immer sauber und das Personal hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das Meer ist Kristall das man über eine durch den Campingplatz führende steilen hauptweg erreicht wo sich links und rechts entlang terassenförmige Stellplätze befinden. auf dem Platz sind einige mullstationen und wasserbrunnen in wenigen Schritten vom Standplatz verteilt und mit dem Strom ist man mit einer zusätzlichen Gebühr auch mit Klimaanlage perfekt abgesichert. ChatGPT Es freut mich sehr, meine Erfahrung auf diesem Campingplatz zu teilen. Diese Anlage ist wahrlich traumhaft und wurde mit außergewöhnlicher Liebe zum Detail gestaltet. Die kunstvollen Gestaltungen in jeder Ecke sind ein wahrer Augenschmaus. Die Sauberkeit des Campingplatzes und des Sanitärbereichs war bemerkenswert, und das Personal war äußerst hilfsbereit und freundlich. Der Weg zum kristallklaren Meer, der durch den Campingplatz führt, ist zwar steil, aber die terrassenförmigen Stellplätze links und rechts entlang des Weges bieten eine großartige Aussicht. Die Müllstationen und Wasserbrunnen, die nur wenige Schritte von den Stellplätzen entfernt sind, sind äußerst praktisch. Die Möglichkeit, gegen eine zusätzliche Gebühr stärkeren Strom zu nutzen, bietet den perfekten Komfort wo auch die Klimaanlage und andere Geräte problemlos gemeinsam laufen können. Ich kann diesen Campingplatz nur wärmstens empfehlen und freue mich bereits auf meinen nächsten Besuch!

Disliked: Kein wc Papier in den Toiletten. Aufpreis bei Nutzung einer warmen Dusche.

Liked: Tutto! Struttura curata nei minimi dettagli, bagni puliti e nuovi, spiaggia privata con mare magnifico, bar fornito di beni di prima necessità, con possibilità di ordinare pizze e panini, lo staff cordiale e ogni sera vengono a prendere le ordinazioni per la colazione così da non trovarsi sprovvisti di cornetti per gli ospiti.

Disliked: Il parcheggio... Dal sito non si capiva che il parcheggio era fuori dalla struttura e quindi non vicino alla propria piazzola... E il parcheggio di fronte era tutto prenotato, quindi bisognava fare 500 metri per arrivare a quello alla fine della strada.

Liked: Nice location next to an unspoilt beach. Close to a lovely town and resort by bus provided at the camp. A train to Palermo takes about 50 mins from the town but definitely worth a visit

Disliked: A limited bar menu.

Local attractions

Cefalù (10 minutes’ drive) is well worth some of your time – the resort town has a maze of medieval streets to stroll through, plus a Romanesque cathedral and an interesting ancient washhouse that’s been turned into an art gallery. Energetic types can also climb La Rocca, but there’s also the option of more beach time if you’d rather relax. A little way south (15 minutes’ drive) is Parco delle Madonie, a 35,000-hectare nature reserve that’s got some great hikes and bike rides plus cute villages like Castelbuono (half an hour), Isnello (35 minutes) and Castellana Sicula (50 minutes), all of which are good for a wander and a meal. For a full day out, take yourselves over to Palermo (50 minutes) to visit the Palatine Chapel, the cathedral and the catacombs, and to pick up tasty street food at the various markets.
