Capo Passero
Although the south-eastern tip of Sicily is not very interesting from a historical point of view or landscape, the nuances lit sea, the relaxed atmosphere and the almost complete lack of overbuilding makes it a pleasant place to visit. The most renowned is Pachino, a lively town in vocaszione farm surrounded by fertile vineyards, while Marzaremi 5 km away, is a quiet fishing village and summer turns into a seaside resort.
Isole delle correnti
The Island of Currents is a small round shaped island of Sicily, on the Ionian coast, located in the municipality of Portopalo, extended for about 10 000 m² with a maximum height of 4 m above sea level.
It is connected to the mainland by an artificial arm, destroyed several times by the waves. When the tide turns the island into a peninsula, it is the extreme south of the island of Sicily.
On the island stands a lighthouse, where decades ago housed the lighthouse keeper and his family, of rectangular shape, with a large square in front. The lighthouse is also in the process of decay, being abandoned for years.
Islet grows little flora, but there are plenty of wild leek seedlings, capers and other shrubs typical of the Mediterranean.
Since 1987 the island has been included in the plan of the parks and nature reserves, for the presence of coastal vegetation with biotic communities Salt and psammophilous relict.
