Cefalù Seafront, officially named Lungomare Giuseppe Giardina, is one of the city’s most iconic spots and one of Sicily’s most beloved seaside destinations. It stretches out as a long expanse of golden sand, with crystal-clear waters, lined with palm trees, beach clubs, traditional bars, and restaurants, all set against the dramatic backdrop of the Rocca di Cefalù.

Perfect for those looking to soak up the sun or enjoy a romantic sunset stroll, the seafront is dotted with beach establishments and seaside eateries—ideal places to savor Sicilian specialties in a truly authentic atmosphere. Lungomare Giuseppe Giardina is easily accessible from various streets in the town center, with multiple stairways and pedestrian paths leading to the beach. From the early morning hours, it’s the ideal spot for a refreshing walk, accompanied by the soothing sound of the waves. For sports enthusiasts, the seafront also features a modern outdoor fitness area, equipped with gear for cardio workouts, bodyweight exercises, calisthenics, and even crossfit—an excellent way to stay active while enjoying the sea breeze.

In the afternoon, the promenade comes alive with daily life: beach volleyball tournaments, children playing in the sand, and stalls selling souvenirs, local crafts, and typical products. Every corner reflects the true spirit of Cefalù. And when it’s time for a tasty break, you can choose from a variety of restaurants and bars along the waterfront, where you can enjoy fresh seafood, handmade granita, or a simple aperitif with a sea view.

As the sun sets, the Lungomare of Cefalù transforms into a magical place: the sky turns orange and red, while the evening breeze sets the tone for romantic walks, sunset drinks, and enchanting seaside dinners. At night, the area lights up with music, events, and venues offering entertainment for those who want to enjoy Cefalù’s nightlife with style and ease.

Our tip: If you’re staying at Palazzo Villelmi or Studio Matteotti, you’ll be just steps away from the seafront! You can easily reach it on foot and enjoy it every day in an exclusive setting.
