What is the sea like in Santa Flavia?
The sea in Santa Flavia is a true spectacle of nature, characterized by clear turquoise waters that invite you to dive in and explore, especially in the area of the 100 Steps beach. The coast is predominantly rocky, with some sandy coves (the coves of Sant’Elia beach) that provide easy and safe access to the sea. The clarity of the water is astonishing, allowing you to clearly see the seabed and the rich marine life that inhabits it. This makes Santa Flavia an ideal place for snorkeling and diving enthusiasts, who can admire the variety of fish that populate these waters. The sea temperature, moreover, is pleasantly warm during the summer months, making every swim a refreshing experience.
The currents are generally calm, which makes the sea suitable even for less experienced swimmers and families with children. The sea is also important because it helps create a special atmosphere in the ancient village of Santa Flavia, with its small beach framed by cliffs. The beauty of the sea is further enhanced by the surrounding landscapes, with lush hills overlooking the coast, creating a unique and fascinating environment for those who wish to immerse themselves in the nature and history of Sicily.
