Mediterranean Coast
Transcendent Temples
Agrigento's unparalleled array of ancient temples, coupled with the superb collection of
artefacts at the nearby archaeological museum, constitutes Sicily's greatest classical legacy.
White Cliffs, Wild Sands
Stellar beachgoing spots dot the coast west of Agrigento, including the long, unspoiled
shoreline of Riserva Naturale Torre Salsa, the golden sands of Eraclea Minoa and the stun-
ning white rock formation called Scala dei Turchi, at its best when illuminated by the set-
ting sun.
Superb Seafood
You can eat well all along this coast, but at no place better than Sciacca, where seafood is
delivered straight from the boat into the kitchens of the many port-side restaurants.
