Where to stay in San Vito Lo Capo: the best areas
Let’s immediately start talking about which are the best areas to stay in San Vito Lo Capo .
Although staying directly in the center or near the sea in the famous resort can certainly prove to be the most comfortable choice for spending your days on the beach, this is not necessarily the best decision… at least not for everyone!
In fact, San Vito Lo Capo is quite expensive and crowded in the high season and may not be the right place if you want to save money or if you are looking for a quiet place to relax.
Nearby there are a number of cheaper destinations, equally suggestive and perfect for reaching San Vito Lo Capo in a short time which, in our opinion, you should take into consideration.
However, we will talk about it better and in more detail below.
ADVICE FOR YOU!
If you don’t have your own car because you arrived by plane, remember to rent one in advance online to avoid anxiety, problems or even nasty surprises once you get there.
-> Here you can rent a car in San Vito Lo Capo and surroundings .
-> Alternatively, you can rent a car here directly at Trapani Airport .
1 – San Vito Lo Capo Center
The beach of San Vito lo Capo under Monte Monaco.
As we said, this is the perfect decision if you want to be close to the beach and if you want to get around on foot .
In fact, the center is very intimate and allows you to forget your car for several days .
Furthermore, in San Vito Lo Capo you will find numerous shops, bars and restaurants and you will really have everything you need to spend a peaceful holiday at your fingertips.
This makes it perfect , for example, for a family vacation .
On the other hand, however, we must be honest and say that during the high season the prices can be exorbitant and the crowd almost annoying . If you want to save money or if you are looking for a quiet destination, look elsewhere!
2 – Macari and Castelluzzo
Macari is the perfect place to spend a relaxing holiday .
The beach here is decidedly wilder than that of nearby San Vito Lo Capo and we, we admit, appreciated it much more!
Nearby you will find very little frequented bays and coves where you can relax and forget about anything else.
In the evening there isn’t who knows what to do in these parts, but in about 10 minutes by car you can reach San Vito Lo Capo, enjoy a walk or dine in a good restaurant.
A very short distance from Macari is Castelluzzo , a small and quiet hamlet teeming with B&Bs and apartments which certainly offer much lower prices than San Vito Lo Capo.
3 – Custonaci
A little further away, about 30 minutes by car from San Vito Lo Capo is Custonaci , a lively village that rises on the slopes of Monte Cofano.
The village , on which stands an imposing sanctuary, looks like a real nativity scene that climbs the slopes of a hill, but what makes this place an excellent holiday destination is the beauty of the surrounding nature .
The wild beach of Cornino , for example, is a real corner of paradise and the Monte Cofano Nature Reserve is the right place for long panoramic walks.
If you love places that are not very touristy , Custonaci is the best place to stay near San Vito Lo Capo!
4 – Sea Zarbo
It is one of the less touristy areas to stay near San Vito Lo Capo .
In Zarbo di Mare you will find some beautiful villas where you can spend your holidays in absolute peace .
In the surrounding area, there are also some wonderful unspoiled coves where you can take a dip in crystal clear waters.
San Vito Lo Capo with all its services is only 10 minutes away .
5 – Castellammare del Golfo
Panorama of Castellammare del Golfo.
Castellammare del Golfo is an hour from San Vito Lo Capo .
It’s not very close, but it’s in a super strategic position to explore this area of Sicily.
We stayed in a small apartment here and enjoyed it very much.
During the day you can move to reach the beaches, visit the suggestive Scopello with its Tonnara or explore the Zingaro Oriented Reserve.
In the evening, however, you can take a walk in the village before enjoying an excellent fish-based dinner.
Here you will also find numerous shops and supermarkets, as well as all the necessary services for a peaceful holiday.
6 – Scopello
The village of Scopello.
Scopello is also about an hour away from San Vito Lo Capo .
It’s not exactly a very convenient location if your priority is to see the famous beach, but we still recommend it because here you can experience the true experience of a Sicilian village .
From Scopello you can move during the day to beaches, coves or other destinations in the surrounding area and then in the evening, upon your return, you can enjoy the slow life of the village made up of chats at the bar or outside the front door.
Scopello also stands in a privileged position for visiting the Zingaro Nature Reserve.
7 – Trapani
Salt pans of Trapani and Paceco at sunset.
Finally, a last solution where to sleep to go to San Vito Lo Capo could be to stay in Trapani which is about an hour from the famous beach .
Staying in Trapani means enjoying all the services of a big city, being close to the airport and being in an excellent position for visiting Western Sicily .
From here you can reach not only San Vito Lo Capo, but also the characteristic Erice , the salt pans of Trapani and Marsala , the fascinating island of Favignana and other destinations that we have recommended in this article dedicated to what to see around Trapani .
Let’s say that this city is perfect if during your stay you intend to travel around a lot, but you prefer to have a fixed and convenient base close to the main services.
