Our very Sicilian "Stairway to Heaven": musical cover of the Led Zeppelin song? No! Cala Muletti.

Sicily has always been on everyone's lips: an island poised between tradition and innovation, between sun and sea, between past and present. There have been many attempts to describe it, even on our part, as a sweet combination of deep emotions and sensations that have attracted hundreds of national and international tourists for years.

Today, we want to recall how Goethe described it after his arrival in Palermo on April 2, 1787: “I cannot describe in words the vaporous luminosity that floated around the coasts when we arrived in Palermo on a stupendous afternoon. The purity of the contours, the sweetness of the whole, the degrading of the tones, the harmony of the sky, the sea, the earth… whoever has seen them once will never forget them for life.” And if Goethe couldn't find the right words, let alone us!

When I read these words again, many are the images evoked of ravines, corners of paradise, real pearls of the Mediterranean scattered throughout Sicily but today, in particular, we want to tell you about Cala Muletti, in the bay of San Cataldo, famous for the landing of the Angevin fleet in 1314.

This marvellous coastal inlet is located a stone's throw from Palermo, between the towns of Trappeto and Terrasini. The scenery in front of your eyes will be so splendid and unprecedented that it seems almost unbelievable. You will not regret having included it in your itinerary to discover Sicily. Once you arrive at this little gem nestled on the west coast, you will find yourself in front of a WWII bunker. Once passed, you will find yourself at the top of a wonderful staircase: on the left, you can admire the beach of San Cataldo; on the right, among the rocks, the Grotta delle Colombe (cove of volcanic origin). The advice is to walk down the staircase, enjoying the breathtaking view in front of you and ending with an agile dip in the refreshing waters of that sea of ​​a thousand shades that embraces and caresses the promontory.
