It is one of the major seaside resorts in the entire province; Despite its size, it attracts millions of tourists every year. In the summer period the population even triples, making the main squares and the most important streets of the country crowded. The town, which is part of the Madonie Park, is included in the club of The most beautiful villages in Italy. The city is dominated by a hill of 270 m., with a particular head-shaped profile, which falls vertically into the sea, while, on the internal side, it opens onto the urban area, gradually descending into a grassy slope. Cefalù has a picturesque marina, from which you can observe the characteristic sea front of the walled city, with the arches that shelter the boats. The climate, typically Mediterranean, enjoys dry and hot summers, mitigated by ventilation, and mild and moderately rainy winters. Cefalù is a tourist resort of great interest for tourists. Therefore, it is quite equipped for hospitality, with a series of hotels of different categories and quality of services, and restaurants offering, above all, fish specialities. The streets of the center are full of souvenir shops, local crafts and small antiques.
