Seafront Villas in Aci Trezza: Maritime Law Basics

Beachfront in Italy has rules. We explain what ‘state property’ can mean for terraces, stairs, decks and shoreline works.

Along parts of the Sicilian coast, elements near the shoreline may fall under maritime state property rules. That can affect what is legally buildable, maintainable, or transferable.

What we check

  • Existing works near the shoreline: legality and authorizations
  • Setbacks, easements and access rights
  • Future renovation feasibility

Sea views are priceless—compliance is not optional.
