Castellammare del Golfo: A Gem on the Tyrrhenian Sea

Nestled in a picturesque bay, Castellammare del Golfo takes its name from the medieval castle with a striking cylindrical tower overlooking the sea.
Inhabited since pre-Hellenic times, this charming town once served as the port and trading hub for the ancient cities of Segesta and Erice. Its historic center was founded by Pietro di Luna in 1560.
Just a few kilometers away lies the stunning Scopello tuna fishery, framed by dramatic sea stacks, and one of the gateways to the beautiful Zingaro Nature Reserve.
