Entertainment, excursions and attractions
Here come also because Cefalu is rich in sights. So, all the tourists go to Duomo Square to visit the Cathedral, built in the Arab-Norman style in the 12th century. The current cathedral is famous for its well-preserved on the walls Byzantine mosaic.
But the locals think that their visiting card is a natural monument - the rock of La Rocca, as if hanging over the city. Rising on it will require physical effort, but, believe me, they will be rewarded many times with a stunning view of the sea and the Cefal ра that lies below. Here, by the way, you can also see the ruins of the temple of Diana, built, according to historians, back in ancient times.
A funny excursion awaits tourists wishing to visit the preserved medieval laundry. Although it is active (there are stone baths and water is constantly supplied), but nobody uses it in the resort town.
Attractions in Cefal можно can be studied independently, without limiting yourself in time, or you can choose a one-day bus tour.
Windsurfing and kitesurfing are very popular among water sports. It is famous for Cefal and club holidays: every evening in local bars there are incendiary discos, including on the beaches.
What else to see
