Pool of Venus

I got there late in the afternoon of a cloudy day still it was amazing. First you walk through a Mediterranean shrubs/trees area, then a breathtaking view of the sea and a stairway to the pool of Venus. A many-sense experience where you can also hear the birds and smell the fragrance of aromatic plants. It’s a must-see place in all seasons. The entrance is free; the sign says gate closes at 7.30 but I left at almost 8 with no problems.

A magical place. Be careful, the stairs can be challenging in the heat.

Stunning landscape and rocky beach.
Great for snorkeling but also for chill bathing in Pool of Venus.
There's a parking lot and a snack bar near the entrance to the natural reserve.
The path down to the beach is a bit lengthy but very pretty and manageable.
On weekdays at least, the beach doesn't get crowded.

There are no sunbeds on the beach and umbrellas are not allowed!

We went off season, early October towards the end of the day. The water was stunning and the sunset even more beautiful. Worth the trek down and up the rocky steps. Don’t be a dumb dumb and forget your swim shorts in the car. 🙃

Go early in the morning if you do not want a lot of crowd!

Went there on a cloudy day, still quite beautiful, cause the sea is so blue and somewhere the sea even glows! Very Rocky Mountain! I like yellow khaki rocks with cactus 🌵 , look so hardcore!

Extraordinary place. After going trought a marvellous field of ancient olive trees we went down 130 steps we took a wonderful bath in a magic water full of fishes. Free entrance. I suggest going early in the morning as in the summer when the sun rises temperature goes up very fast and coming up againg is a hard work.

Super beautiful isolated pool at the end of a lovely nature walk. The pool has a natural wave break so it's very calm and still. There's lots of wildlife in the rock pools and pool - sit still a moment and watch for glass shrimp, crabs, hermit crabs, fish, and even eels!
The rocks are sometimes sharp, so be careful when walking barefoot. In the water they are smooth, but can be slippy!
The water is lovely and warm - we took a dip in mid-November!

Small water cap within natural reserve. Great quiet reserve. Officially forbidden to enter but looks that unofficially everyone approves even some CCTV in operation ;-)
Anyhow 1120m from parking, some 130m down to water but then you will enjoy the place!

excellent as a hike walking all the way from the marina Port lungo-mare in downtown milazzo. start off going along the westward shoreline; and then on the way back walk across the spine of the peninsula to reach the famous sanctuary, cape, castle, fortress, etc

Family and god friendly “pool” only if you don’t have any stroller. Definitely not ADA accessible. Besides the stairs problem (easy to walk for those who have no particular problems) is an amazing place. Background of lots of Sicilian weddings.

Amazingly stunning piece of nature. Il capo de milazzo really feels like you are walking to the end of the world. The small stretch of land, sea on both sides, the beautiful path amidst cacti, flowers & olive trees leading to the beautifully rough coast. What a marvel!

What an idyllic spot - a true little paradise!
We couldn't get enough of the view - nature´s best in all its glory. Totally worth the visit!

Beautiful place!! After a 10-15min walk from the parking place you reach the pool of Venus where you can jump in the water. It is a small natural swimming pool. When you go back you can take the other path along the cost and you will reach the same parking place.

This place was a very pleasent suprise! It is bigger and more beautiful than on the fotos. The view is gorgeous and the place is perfect for a long walk around in the nature.

Stunning natural pool 20 minutes walking from Capo Milazzo.
Bring hard shoes to walk on the sharp rocks.

Venus swimming polls is a mystic place especially at sunset.
Please visit it at sunset because you will see the Eolian Island shape on the orizon: a m a z i n g.
You can reach this place only walking 20 min from the top of Milazzo Cape.
Remember to bring with you water.
I recommend to visit it.

Excellent! Be prepared to pant on way back !

Beatiful location, 160 stairs ca. and you Will found natural pools with hot water, no shadows, need to wear shoes for rocks and bring bottle of water! Top!

Super fantastic place to visit in capo Milazzo.
Bring rock shoes as they are essential and get ready to climb a lot of steps.
