Via Marina Arenile, 89135, Gallico
Been here?
This is a quiet, flat, asphalted parking area beside the sea. Water is available near the beaches rather than where vehicles park, and the public beach has a free shower. The area is illuminated and generally quiet at night, though occasional vehicles may make noise. There are also reports of litter.

The water point is not where you park, but next to the beaches with parasols. There is even a hose with a tap, which is very convenient for filling containers. On the public beach side, there is even a self-service shower.
Good place. For light sleepers, you cannot blame the people who said goodbye to each other at 3 a.m. and then drove off. We are always guests.
Spent a very quiet night. No disturbances from young people or too many vehicles. In the morning, two police vehicles were parked just a few metres in front of me. Apart from a friendly “buongiorno,” there was no contact. If you want to eat very good pizza, walk 300 m back along the road; it is on the left. It looks more like a large snack bar, but it is actually a great restaurant.
Quite okay for an overnight stay—lit, safe, and with a great view of Sicily and Mount Etna. The deduction is mainly because young Italians pursue their favourite hobby here too: driving around on the road by car or motorcycle and making noise until well after midnight.
The place is absolutely fine. People regularly walk past or walk their dogs, and there are a few chairs where several gentlemen sat and chatted until 6 p.m. Quiet at night apart from a very few passing cars. At least in November, highly recommended.
Large car park facing the sea. Water tap and rubbish bin. Lots of traffic during the day, but very quiet at night; even the road in front has almost no traffic. It is a shame that the place is full of rubbish. We spent a very good night here. Very convenient for waiting for the ferry to Sicily or for the return journey.
