Villages & Towns
Located very close to Palermo, Aspra is a small fishing village just to the east of the main city and next to Bagheria, the former summer retreat of rich Palermitans.
The colorful wooden boats are somewhat of a trademark for the village and can often be seen in the Gulf just off the beach. This small public beach is widely known for having some of the best ice cream in all of Sicily, and of course, beautiful sunsets too. The warm Mediterranean Sea is ideal most of the year and during the end of summer months just before fall the beaches aren't typically as crowded.
Aspra is a place where to spend holidays and get to know the daily life in a small Sicilian village at the seaside.
