Visit Finale and Pollina
Discover Finale in Sicily
Finale is located only 10mins drive from Cefalu. This small seaside village is located in a very tranquil setting and is accessible to all the town amenities.
The village of Finale is centrally located for easy access to travel around sicily by car from mount etna, the valley of temples, palermo and cefalu. The panoramic coastal view of Finale is unique with the ancient Spanish watch Tower built on a sea cliff. The village itself is quiet, relaxing (not many tourists) and has a couple of pizzerias, bars, cafes and shops. It also has magical sea views from the tower!
They arrive from all over Italy to visit Finale and to spend their family holiday in Sicily. So if Italians are going to Finale when on holiday to visiting Sicily it must be really a good Sicilian holiday destination as a place to travel in! Anyhow Italians only visit Finale as a sun destination location in Sicily for 20 days in August. Meanwhile for the rest of the year it is one of the best and most beautiful sea town in Sicily as a small seaside village in Sicily to find in the island.

View from Finale
La Torre is the main square in Finale which allows you to admire the coastal view of our beautiful Sicilian landscape, meet, eat, and enjoy a few drinks with good company and the aim to sit back and let everything pass you by. We sometimes drive to Cefalu or Castelbuono for a couple of hours shopping or walk but we are always so glad to return back to the peace and tranquility of Finale and our enviable sea views! At the Tower square there is a Pub/Bar to enjoy even more the Finale Cliff view of the Sicilian coast.

Local Sandy Beach in Finale
There are two local popular beaches. One is a 10 minute walk from our house (rocky) and the other is either 20 mins walking or a couple of mins in the car. The second beach is sandy, spacious and has car parking facilities. There is also access to a very rocky beach walking distance from our house, just close to the tower, but very good for snorkeling!

However, if you want to explore more of Sicily you are really best to hire a car. We have private car parking onsite.

Edge View and Sicilian Hills
Discover Pollina in Sicily
Pollina is a village at 700mts from the sea level. Here you will stand on top of the giants (OW) and enjoy the view and surroundings of the Madonie mountains (peak of 2k mts). And also you will see San Mauro, Cefalu, Geraci, and Finale with the sea view.
Pollina has an open anphi theatra that is also used as a square to meet up and relax at the altitude of 700mts.
Nowdays most of the houses are empty and are no longer occupied as a result of an earthquake that happened in 1993 which triggered most of the population to move down to Finale (10kms down at the coast level).
It is an amazing spot to stay and see.
