The town is perched on a hill, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. The coastline is spectacular by day and magical at night with the lights of hotels and villages. The narrow, curving roads are jammed with tourists and motorists looking for a parking spot. B.C. The castle sits above the town. Streets weave circuitously, with many stone archways leading to the next block.
Geraniums explode out of window boxes on virtually every block.
Outdoor cafes are everywhere. We dined on pizza at Da Peppe's for lunch and pasta and tuna at Trattoria Sciliiana da Giovanni for dinner, where we had a wonderful view of the sea. We had a splendid time, shopping, dining and spending a couple of hours sunning on the beach and swimming. It was a great day off. It was an odd color that I dubbed electric pea green.
