About the beach
Lido del Carabiniere, within Santa Flavia (the province of Palermo, Sicily), is a pebble beach on the Tyrrhenian Sea.
The name is that of the beach club mapped on OpenStreetMap for this stretch of beach.
The beach faces northeast (53°). It is most sheltered when the Libeccio (SW) or Ponente (W) blows, as it comes from inland; with a Gregale (NE) or Levante (E) the wind blows from the sea onto the shore and can whip up waves.
Pebbly bottom: water shoes make getting in much more comfortable.
Bathing water quality: excellent (European EEA classification, 2025 season).
