White fountains is that name that evokes images of a dream seaside resort, where with a little imagination you can think of being in the most beautiful sea in the Caribbean.
And instead we are in Sicily, on a beach overlooking splendid crystal clear waters where you can spend your holidays, take romantic walks on the shoreline or simply look at the horizon. Not far from Calamosche this stretch of fine beach stretches that leaves you speechless at any time of the year.
Fontane Bianche: only in summer?
It is said that the September sea is the most beautiful to live: uncrowded beaches, calm and warm waters, but above all that peace that makes any stretch of sand more attractive. In Fontane Bianche, however, this rule is in some way subverted, because the Sicilian seaside resort manages to attract people at any time of the year! It does not matter if it is August and the beach is invaded by a carpet of umbrellas or that it is October and only seagulls fly along the coast: Fontane Bianche is that place to fall in love with at any time.
The beach is framed by small grains of very fine white sand. Children play for hours and parents lie down to color their skin between dives in the transparent bay. Why here the sea is transparent and clear as in those paradisiacal places overseas that you see in travel magazines. So why go far when this breathtaking beach exists in this corner of the earth? 1.200 meters of Syracusan coast where you can dive to enjoy its warm, clean and deeply calm waters, suitable for all family and even to those who do not have great swimming skills. The seabed is in fact low and it is not uncommon to be able to admire colorful fish swimming near the shore.
An oasis for everyone ...
Between resorts and lidos, the beach of Fontane Bianche is one of the most popular destinations during the peak season. There are many VIPs from the Italian and foreign entertainment world who love to travel to Sicily. They want to take advantage of the beauty of this oasis of peace where they can enjoy both the splendid turquoise sea and the panorama that surrounds it. Even marine animals, such as turtles, they choose it as a destination to lay their eggs and multiply the species! In fact, it is not uncommon to find some areas cordoned off byEnpa. The aim is to protect these little turtles that shyly come to life and make their first dive in the waters of the Syracusan bay.
Not only the sea and the beach make Fontane Bianche a heavenly place to be experienced. Even the naturalistic oasis deserves to be explored in a day dedicated to the discovery of nature. Among chirping birds and the rustle of the leaves of the trees, we walk along that path that leads to rediscover the contact with nature that the frenzy of the city often makes us forget. Why not also stop and try bird watching? After all, Fontane Bianche is a unique destination! It should be discovered slowly, from its sea to its streams, from its white beach to its paths where peace reigns.
