San Vito Lo Capo
Sicily
Regularly ranked among Italy's best beaches, San Vito Lo Capo's wide crescent of pale sand curves beneath the limestone bulk of Monte Monaco at the tip of a headland that also holds the Riserva dello Zingaro. The town's couscous festival each September reflects its historic ties across the Sicilian Channel to North Africa.
