San Vito Lo Capo

DJ got off early today so we decided to drive over to San Vito Lo Capo. It was overcast but we wanted to get out of the house and the kids love the water! The water along the beach is shallow for quite a ways out and so was warm. San Vito Lo Capo is about an hour's drive and is a beautiful place to hang out :) The water is incredibly clear and beautiful shades of blue. The pinkish red color is coral that is in little bits and washes in with the tide. Isn't it pretty?





Ben has always loved the water and the beach. He and the girls had fun in the water today with the soccer ball. DJ was kicking the ball out to them and then they'd throw it back.





These trees were next to where we parked. It's amazing what a large variety of vegetation that Sicily has. It makes for a very texturized landscape!




We enjoyed cappuchinos and treats while sitting on the outdoor patio at the Sea Garden. While we were sitting there a rider and his horse rode by. I've always thought it would be wonderful to ride a horse at the beach!!......maybe someday :)









I love lighthouses. I was born and raised in Oregon where we have some unique and beautiful lighthouses! This one was fenced off so we couldn't explore it :(




This picture was taken on a very windy road that leads from San Vito Lo Capo to Zingaro Nature Reserve ( that's an adventure waiting for another day ). It's a picture of a club with a swimming pool and tennis courts.....we saw the sign for it but I've forgotten the name. The last few pictures are taken on that same road just closer to Zingaro Nature Reserve.

Anyway, it was a fun and relaxing outing and we'll be going back for sure!
