Vetrano

Vetrano is a picturesque rocky beach located 35 minutes from the center of Catania. It is known for its stunning sea views and the breathtaking sight of the Etna volcano. The beach is easily accessible by car or on foot, making it a convenient destination for visitors. However, parking can be somewhat limited due to the area's popularity. The path to the sea is approximately 300 meters and can be reached either by a staircase or a shorter, steeper passage. Both routes may not be suitable for individuals with mobility issues. The beach is also notable for its underground springs of fresh water. Despite its natural beauty, Vetrano beach lacks certain amenities and services. However, the area is state-owned and visitors have taken it upon themselves to maintain the cleanliness of the reef. The beach is typically not crowded, providing a serene environment for relaxation and enjoyment.
