Santa Flavia - Neighbourhoods
Old town • Good connections
A good day starts with a hearty breakfast on the terrace. So let's quickly pick up a fresh baguette from the bakery.
Oh yes, a few tomatoes wouldn't be bad either. And wasn't there more air in the toothpaste tube than anything else?
No problem - in Santa Flavia you can get almost everything just around the corner. Even a train connection . It takes you to the centre of Palermo in only 20 minutes.
Speaking of the station: the Santa Flavia Shuttle, which was introduced in 2024, also starts there. It connects the train station with the urban centres, the beaches and many sights of Santa Flavia free of charge!
So it's no wonder that the old town of Santa Flavia is home to some of the most popular holiday lettings in the area.
Porticello • Harbour with beach
Let's have a quick capuccino in the harbour's bar. The captain has just boarded the boat opposite on the quay. We're about to head out to explore the coast from the sea with his boat.
The fishermen have now returned and are distributing their catch to the neighbouring shops and restaurants. Let's see what we get from it tonight.
Tomorrow we'll be travelling to Palermo by train. Santa Flavia railway station is only 1 km away after all.
Sant'Elia • Village with beach
Just want to chill out? Preferably with an aperitif in a pleasant atmosphere? No problem.
In Sant'Elia, we add a little more: What did you think of a bar with a sea view in a fishing village and a beach right on your doorstep? Yes, all at the same time!
Just around the corner is the magical bay in our photo. It was taken on 31 October 2022 and, as you can see, you have this bay almost to yourself out of season.
Capo Zafferano • A nose in the sea
Laughing seagulls circle above you. The sea glistening in the backlight seems infinitely large. The lighthouse awaits its nightly deployment.
You are at the very tip of the spectacular Capo Zafferano with its bays and marvellous Sicilian villas.
If you have snatched a holiday letting with a bike, you can use it to go to the beach in the morning, explore the surrounding area in the afternoon and go to one of the many nearby restaurants in the evening.
