At the edge of a rocky cliff you'll see the imposing medieval ruins of Fortezza Vecchia. Wander around the rocky trails, and you can spot various parts of the old fort and wall, enjoying sweeping sea views as you explore. There's a small cove at the bottom of the cliff which is great for swimming, and if you stay in a Villasimius holiday rental you can take your time and explore this peaceful spot. History buffs will also enjoy Museo Archeologico di Villasimius, a small local museum that has artefacts from archaeological digs showing the history of the town from prehistoric to Roman times and beyond.
Villasimius has long stretches of coast with bright-blue sea, and the best way to appreciate it is to dive in. Both beginners and experts will love scuba diving in this unspoilt area, where exotic fish and shipwrecks can be explored just under the surface. Capo Carbonara Marine Protected Area is full of colourful coral reefs, where you'll often see shoals of barracudas or cute sea turtles swimming around. Villasimius also has dolphins swimming just off the coast, and they can usually be spotted between November and March. Occasionally, they'll come to greet divers making for great photo opportunities.
From June until September, Villasimius has hot, dry weather with temperatures often reaching the high 20s, making it a popular time to book a Villasimius holiday rental. April and May are also popular times to visit the island, when it's milder but still sunny. Autumn and winter can bring heavy rain, although the temperature is mild and rarely drops to freezing. Villasimius can have strong winds, which raise the temperature during the summer, and tend to make it feel chillier than average if they're blowing in winter.
Villasimius sits on a long stretch of coast overlooking the calm blue Tyrrhenian Sea, with many beaches to explore. Cala Burroni is set in a rocky cove, sheltering it from the wind, and has large boulders where you can sit and enjoy the sunshine. The soft sands are surrounded by grassy sand dunes, and although it can get busy, if you take a stroll you can find a peaceful spot. Campus Beach is set in a protected marine area and is surrounded by rolling green hills. Enjoying soft, golden sands and clear seas, it's a great spot for swimming or snorkelling.
