Calamosche: here we are in the splendid setting for your summer holidays. How not to love the Sicilian sea? Between crystal clear waters and breathtaking locations it is like feeling on holiday in the Caribbean! Here in Calamosche we are near Noto, inside the Vendicari Nature Reserve, where uncontaminated nature is the protagonist in all its forms. Let's find out what this splendid scenario has in store for us, defined in 2005 by the Legambiente Blue Guide as ...the most beautiful beach in Italy.
Calamosche and its transparent sea
Along the road that connects Noto to Pachino it is a must to make a stop in the beautiful seaside resort known by the name of Calamosche. A detour along the path that is worth taking to treat yourself to moments of relaxation, Sun and sea in a place where respect for the surrounding environment is still in first place. Calamosche looks like a kind of natural swimming pool for its characteristic conformation. In fact, it is a sandy cove of about 200 meters set between two rocky promontories. This particular position allows it to be sheltered from currents, offering its visitors a splendid clean and almost always flat sea.
And it is precisely in these waters so transparent that no mask is needed to admire the seabed and its colorful marine fauna. Here nature feels protected and even the fish know it well, they do not fear the presence of man and approach with caution, giving natural snorkeling to adults and children. Going where the sea becomes deeper, the seabed is even more intriguing and mysterious, with its caves and the marine flora that lives at the bottom of the blue. In the Calamosche cove, however, there are rules to be respected that every tourist has a duty to know before being admitted to this Sicilian paradise.
Nature reserve: do you know how to respect it?
Despite the influx of people who come to Calamosche every year during the summer, it is not a place like many others, where unfortunately man often leaves his mark of incivility. Like nature reserve you need to know that there are gods precautions to take note of. No garbage left lying around, no balls and beach toys and no fishing gear! Here are some key points that should not be underestimated. To get to the beach you have to walk a bit under the rays of the sun so it is good to go early in the morning or bring a hat, especially for the little ones. But what to bring? Costume, water and food and a great desire to relax between a dip and another in the blue of Calamosche.
The beach, which is also called in local jargon Funni Musca, is located in the southern part of the region and has fine white sand, like a real natural paradise. It goes without saying that it is part of the Sicilian coast most popular with tourists. Be careful not to confuse it with Calafly, also a natural beach but located in Sardinia, in the city of Cagliari.
