About the beach
In the municipality of San Vito Lo Capo, in the province of Trapani (Sicily), Cala dell'Uzzo is a pebble beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
Orientation: east (73°). An offshore wind, i.e. the Ponente (W) or Libeccio (SW), keeps it calm; the Levante (E) or Gregale (NE) hits it from the sea and can raise waves.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
