Bagheria’s Cove Of The Heart

In Sicily, you’ll come upon guerrilla art often, like this heart placed at Bagheria’s Tre Piscine (the three pools), now with the secondary name Cala del Cuore (Cove of the Heart). It’s one of my most favorite places in the world.

Rugged and hard to get to if you’re not prepared for it, it’s a magnificent swimming spot, where I love to watch the sunset and immerse myself in the turquoise waters (advanced swimmers only). The heart placed in the stone is suggestive to those of us who know that love breaks through the rough spots.
