Mondello is Palermo's favourite beach, a wide arc of fine white sand set in a natural bay between the headlands of Monte Gallo and Monte Pellegrino, just 11 kilometres from the city centre. The beach is backed by a charming art nouveau pier and seasonal restaurants serving grilled fish, and in summer it becomes the social salon of Palermo society. Hotels in Palermo offer easy access to Mondello by bus or taxi, and some hotels in the beach village itself provide a quieter alternative to the city's intense urban experience.
