6 Sicilian Wedding Venues with a Sea View
If you’re dreaming of an Italian wedding by the sea, Sicily isn’t short of coastline – but these trusted venues really do show off the island’s best angles.
Torre di Scopello
On Sicily’s northwestern coast, Torre di Scopello has stood since the sixteenth century – and you’ll have it all to yourself for your wedding weekend.
Conduct your ceremony on the ancient piazzale overlooking the Faraglioni rocks, then dine in the open air with up to 200 of your favourite people. Come the morning after, head down to the private solarium for a swim while you relive the night before.
Airport: Palermo
Sleeps: Less than 20
Wet weather: On-site or external rental options
Insider tip: The Torre has no exclusive suppliers, so you’re free to personalise your celebration in any way you like.
Castello Camemi
Surrounded by countryside landscapes, sicilian history and romantic architecture, it offers the perfect setting for an atmospheric wedding. A place which feels timeless and showing off the beauty of the region.
Airport: Catania
Guests: 200
Sleeps: 40
Wet weather: On-site or external marquee
Insider tip: For local ceremony options, Vizzini Town Hall is 5-10 minutes drive where a civil ceremony can be hosted. Alternatively in the town of Vizzini there are several late-Baroque churches for Catholic ceremonies. Check your Ceremony Guide for more info.
Tonnara Foderà
Tonnara Foderà doesn’t try to impress you with polish. Embrace its raw beauty on the shoreline at Castellammare del Golfo, where the colours of the bay shift from soft sunrise pastels to fiery sunsets, and the whole place feels like an open-air museum, ode to its ancient fishing past.
Say your vows by the water, then dine under the stars in the garden. It’s atmospheric, intimate and full of character, and it suits smaller, soulful celebrations best.
Airport: Palermo
Guests: 200
Sleeps: 20
We weather: Discuss on-site options
Insider tip: Getting your guests there is surprisingly simple. Palermo airport is just 25 km away, and a train station sits directly across the road with connections to Palermo and Trapani.
Villa Bona
Villa Bona is a historic villa in Termini Imerese, set among olive groves with views stretching towards the sea. Vows are exchanged among the trees, and then it’s all about the terraces. Enjoy an aperitif with the last of the sea view before the light drops and your whole party drifts happily into dinner.
It’s a villa that gives you plenty of freedom to decide how the day should unfold.

Commenda di San Calogero
Commenda di San Calogero sits on 110 acres of orange and olive groves near Augusta, with the sea glinting in the distance. Its owner, an architect and garden designer, has restored it with real care, and the estate is full of shady corners, look-outs and secluded benches for slipping away. There’s a historic chapel, and even a cave where a saint is said to have hidden in Roman times.
