Beautiful !

The Scala is a beautiful site especially at the end of the afternoon or at sunset. I took a bus tour that lets you get off at the top of the cliff. Expect lots of stairs going down... and up again. The beach view is...More

Out of the world!

The guy that was selling tickets in Agrigento said that the best way to get to Scala dei Turchi by bus is to go to P. Empedocle (SAL bus) that drops you in front of Trattoria Sapori di Mare. You must then walk about 20...More

Something you see once (or twice) in your life

I've been there this morning. Absolutely magnificent and a unique experience, even for children. The Cliff is whithe and you can walk on it. In my opinion it is comparable to the Giant's Causeway in Ireland!! Go there!

Nice if you are in the area

We were in the area and after reading all the reviews and seeing all the pics, we decided to visit. We headed from our hotel just after breakfast. The area is not very pleasant to drive around. Parking is confusing since there are multiple "parking"...More

Picturesque and very popular destination in summer

It's very scenographic: this massive white hill, against the water. The sea is nice but nothing special, and it can get very hot around it. It's one of the top destinations of the area, in summer it's packed, but with good shoes one can walk...More

Hi. In November you never know . Once I visited Sicily end of November and it was lovely and hot 24℃ . Couple of years later was still around 18℃ but it was raining. I don't think it's going to be cold but might be wet .
