The Area

Exploring the local Area

The long, often deserted sandy and pebbly beaches are without a doubt one of the major attractions of the area around Menfi, and Casa Alma is within easy reach of several of these (the nearest one, a white pebbly beach, is a 5-minute drive). A pleasant 10 to 15-minute drive will get you to the large expanse of sandy beach at Porto Palo, with its lidos, bars and restaurants, while just slightly further afield are the wild beaches of the Belice Nature Reserve. For those in search of culture, the superb Greek archaeological sites of Selinunte and Agrigento are two of the finest in the Mediterranean. Menfi itself is a centre of the local wine industry, with several wineries, includng a large Planeta winery that produces some of the best known wines of that famous marque. Sciacca, too, is just up the coast. This old fishing port and spa town is well worth a visit, and has some great fish restaurants. And when you've done all that, head inland to see some fascinating hill towns, such as Caltabellotta or Sambuca.
