San Vito Lo Capo, Sicily, Italy

Local Tips
Bring cash for smaller businesses, explore lesser-known beaches like Macari, and consider renting a scooter for nearby towns. Book accommodations early for summer visits.

Tipping is not obligatory but appreciated (round up or 5-10%). Dress modestly when away from the beach; beachwear is not suitable for restaurants or shops. Greet shopkeepers and thank them with 'grazie.'
Safety Warnings
San Vito is generally very safe, but always keep an eye on valuables, especially at crowded beaches during peak season. Watch for jellyfish warnings at the sea. Beware of overpriced taxis, confirm fares before rides.
