Italy - Sicily

A steep tufa ridden crag with some excellent routes and a beautiful view. The crag is not far from the main San Vito cliffs and is in the shade most of the day; This is useful on hot days, also many of the routes stay dry in the rain, but it is cold in winter. 

The very impressive wall, 90m high has some excellent long tufa climbs,  sometimes runout, from 6a to 8a. It is just a 20 to 30 minute drive from the San Vito centre, and a 2 minute walk to the crag. It gets the sun in the afternoon.

The section of cliff right and left of the prominent white quarried face. It has mostly routes in the 5s and 6s, but there are a few harder routes.

The North end of the San Vito cliffs is a beautiful area  especially around Mancina Bay. Limestone pavements, the Mediterranean and an abundance of wild flowers, especially in spring.  The climbing is also very good with a nice variety of routes.

The crag directly behind the camping site consists of several sectors

A nice piece of rock that gets the shade in the afternoon

The area that starts above and to the right of the El Bahira Camp site. Lots of excellent climbing in all grades. Perfect in winter, hot in the summer.

A few hundred metres to the right of the campsite is a beautiful pine forest with some excellent climbing above it.

Situated about 400m right of El Bahira camping, the "Waste Sector" has some excellent routes, despite the name.

The crags above the parking spots offer some excellent long climbs

A crag that looks like it is falling to bits, but actually offers some really nice routes in the 5s and 6s.

The central part of San Vito, between the path to the supermarket and Bunker has a a good selection of mid grade routes and a couple of interesting sectors. In particular Castello is in the shade in the afternoon.

The sector underneath the conspicuous tower,  about 800m right of the camping

The crags above the path leading to the supermarket in San Vito lo Capo from the El Bahira campsite.
