The surroundings

The Agriturismo Masseria sul Mare is ideally situated to reach the touristy and cultural sights in the south-east of Sicily, the province of Catania, the region around Mount Etna and the baroque towns of Modica, Scicli and Ragusa.
In our immediate surroundings you should not miss out on visits to the natural reserves Pantalica, Cavagrande del Cassibile and Vendicari.

The baroque towns of Noto, Avola and Palazzolo Acreide are extremely worth seeing.
Also worth a visit is Syracuse, where visitors can follow in the Roman-Greek footsteps and discover the Greek theatre, the Ear of Dionysus, the catacombs, Castello Maniace and the Island of Ortigia.

Moreover, we recommend a visit to the fishing village of Marzamemi, the tonnara, the historic factory of the local tuna fishermen, in Portopalo di Capo Passero with its superb beaches, the beaches of Calamosche and Marinella, and the medieval village of Buccheri at the bottom of the steep slopes of the Iblei mountains.

Moreover, the whole coastal stretch of the province of Ragusa with the beaches of Punta Secca, the famous setting for the TV programme Commissario Montalbano, invites the tourists.
