Discover South-Eastern Sicily
Staying at Villa Anna tra Le Dune means having a remarkable collection of Baroque treasures, historic fishing villages and unspoilt nature reserves within easy reach.
Here is what makes each destination so special.
Fishing Villages and Timeless Atmospheres
Marzamemi
A picturesque fishing village that seems suspended in time. Its vibrant heart is the charming Piazza Regina Margherita, framed by old stone fishermen’s cottages and the historic tuna fishery.
It is the perfect place to enjoy sunset drinks or a dinner featuring locally caught bluefin tuna and Pachino cherry tomatoes.
Portopalo di Capo Passero
Located at the southernmost point of Sicily, where the Ionian Sea meets the Mediterranean, Portopalo offers a truly unique coastal setting.
Just off the shoreline lies the Island of Capo Passero, dominated by an ancient Spanish fortress. During low tide, it may even be possible to reach the island on foot.
Pozzallo
A lively seaside town overlooked by the impressive Cabrera Tower, a historic fifteenth-century defensive structure.
Pozzallo is renowned for its wide stretches of golden sand and its seafront promenade, which is perfect for an evening stroll.
Baroque Masterpieces and UNESCO Heritage
Noto
Known as the “Capital of Baroque”, Noto is a magnificent open-air museum.
As you walk along its main street, you will be captivated by the golden limestone, which gives a warm glow to the majestic cathedral, elegant aristocratic palaces and spectacular stairways.
Modica
Built along the sides of a deep gorge, Modica is famous for its monumental churches, including the magnificent Cathedral of San Giorgio.
It is also an essential destination for food lovers, as this is where you can taste the celebrated Modica chocolate, produced using a traditional cold-processing method based on an ancient recipe of Aztec origin.
Scicli
A Baroque jewel set within a natural valley, Scicli is filled with aristocratic palaces decorated with elaborate stone masks and atmospheric churches built into the surrounding rock.
Fans of Italian television may recognise its Town Hall, which became the famous Vigata police station in the Inspector Montalbano television series.
Ragusa Ibla
The oldest district of Ragusa is an enchanting maze of cobbled lanes, stone stairways and traditional houses clustered together beneath the majestic dome of the Cathedral of San Giorgio.
Wandering through its medieval streets reveals picture-perfect views around every corner.
Unspoilt Nature and Beautiful Beaches
Vendicari Nature Reserve
A true paradise for walking and birdwatching enthusiasts.
Along its trails, surrounded by Mediterranean scrubland, you will discover ancient wetlands visited by pink flamingos, the remains of an atmospheric eighteenth-century tuna fishery and secluded coves with crystal-clear, Caribbean-like waters.
Among its most celebrated beaches is the beautiful Calamosche Bay.
