About the beach
Harúçia is a rocky stretch of coast in the municipality of Pantelleria, in the province of Trapani (Sicily), on the Strait of Sicily.
Facing northeast (31°), it is sheltered with the Libeccio (SW) or Ostro (S); with the Gregale (NE) or Tramontane (N), which comes from the sea, it gets rougher.
Rocky seabed: water shoes help, and in calm seas it is good for snorkelling.
