  • Scenic site edging the protected Lakes of Marinello Reserve
  • Next to the beach, a 15-minute walk from Oliveri village centre
  • Restaurant, windsurfing school and Aeolian islands excursions
Swoop over to Sicily for an especially scenic sojourn at Villaggio Turistico Marinello on the Tindari promontory in Nebrodi and right next door to the Lakes of Marinello Reserve, a protected seafront area known for its spectacular lakes and spacious beaches. Not that you’ll need to go far from this top park to stretch out on your own slice of stunning shoreline: it edges a pebbly and sandy beach on one side that slopes gently into the ocean on the island’s Tyrrhenian coastline. And yes, being able to sunbathe under the Sicilian rays so close to home does indeed mean you can easily nip back home to pick up food at the restaurant, pizzeria and small shop on site or for a mid-afternoon beer at the bar’s patio with views out over the sea… For folk eager to take on energetic activities as well as getting in a bit of well-deserved rest, Villaggio Turistico Marinello has you sorted with its tennis, basketball and volleyball courts, along with chances to reel in a couple of fine specimens while fishing; it organises windsurfing classes and rental at its watersports school too and has a playground and games room to keep the kids active (as well as tired out enough for early bedtimes so you can head back over to the bar for a peaceful sundowner or two…). Traditional trattorias for a drink or some eats are also in the centre of the village of Oliveri, around a 15-minute walk away, which has a train station if you’re travelling around Sicily without your own wheels. The park has bike rental as well, and organises tours of swish Sicilian sights like the Aeolian Islands, Mount Etna, the Greek theatre of Taormina and the coastal city of Cefalù.

Liked: Great location right by the beach and lots of shade from the trees.

Disliked: It's a fairly basic campsite as reflected by the price but has everything you need, other than drinking water which was very salty.

Liked: Camping gestito benissimo in un luogo bellissimo, ottima pulizia e personale della reception molto competente e gentile

Disliked: Ristorante pizzeria all'interno del camping con camerieri molto sgarbati e incompetenti. Almeno la metà dei clienti, come me, si è lamentata e alcuni si sono persino alzati e sono andati via senza consumare. Servizio scandaloso, mai visto una cosa del genere.

Local attractions

If you’re up for hiking, this area’s famed for the Tindari hill that towers over the park and is home to an ancient Graeco-Roman town with a theatre alongside the Sanctuary of the Black Madonna basilica pilgrimage spot a couple of hours’ walk (or a 20-minute drive if you have a car). Further afield are Sicilian beaches like those off the fishing village of Capo d’Orlando (45 minutes) and at Milazzo (30 minutes), where you can also spy the remains of a citadel and castle. Meanwhile, veering ever more to the east leads to Messina (50 minutes) for the ferry over to Villa San Giovanni on the Italian mainland.
