Sicily - Tyrrhenian Coast (PDF Chapter)

This is the Tyrrhenian Coast chapter from Lonely Planet’s Sicily guidebook.

The coastal stretch between Palermo and Milazzo is packed with dramatic beach and moun-tain scenery, and appealing coastal towns like Cefalù and Castel di Tusa – but once summer rolls around, it’s holiday central, characterised by crowded roads and beaches.

• choose the glitter that suits you best in Cefalù – the Duomo’s sparkling gold mosaics or the fashion-conscious beach scene a few paces away
• maps
• relive the glory days of Italy’s greatest road race in Collesano’s Museo Targa Florio
• transport
• while away a chilly mountain evening by the blazing fire in a pizzeria in Petralia Sopra-na
• restaurants
