Playa Lido Zabbara, Mediterranean beach in Marinella, Castelvetrano, Italy.
Playa Lido Zabbara is a sandy beach along the Sicilian coast near the residential area of Marinella di Selinunte. The water is clear and the shoreline stretches wide, with beach bars and facilities spread across a good length of coast.
This place was once a simple fishing village and gradually transformed into a modern coastal destination over time. The shift happened without losing the strong ties to its maritime roots.
Small fishing communities nearby have passed down traditional recipes for generations, and you can taste their influence in the restaurants along the shore. The local kitchens still work directly with fishermen who bring in their daily catch.
The beach has good facilities including restaurants, bars, and parking, making a visit straightforward. Early mornings are typically quieter, while afternoons tend to get busier, especially on weekends.
The beach sits very close to the Archaeological Park of Selinunte, where you can see ancient Greek ruins. This location lets visitors combine history and beach time within just a few minutes of travel.
