Day Trips & Beaches around Palermo
Beach
Mondello Beach is one of Palermo’s most visited spots. Only 10 miles from the capital of Sicily, with it’s amazing white sand and crystal clear water, Mondello is known as the Caribbean of Sicily.
Like any other Sicilian beach, it can be crowded during the summer months so best time to visit is before June or mid September.
How to get there: take a bus 806 from Libertà Croci. The bus runs frequently so you don’t have to worry to much about the timetable. The single ticket costs €1.40 and the journey takes around 20-30mins (if you don’t stay close to the route of bus 806, you can take another bus to get you to Libertà Croci, you only need one ticket which is valid 90min from validation - don’t forget to validate on the bus).
Mind that especially during August the bus can get very crowded so it’s best to get on at it’s fist stop.
