Pachino

Overview

Land of memories and flavours

At the extreme southeast of Sicily, about 50 kilometers from Syracuse, Pachino is a seaside resort particularly appreciated for its crystal clear and fishy waters. The “heel” of Sicily has a long history behind it, dominated over time by different peoples and cultures.

Home to the homonymous PGI cherry tomato, Pachino is the ideal destination for a food and wine and archaeological trip. Between the central Chiesa Madre del Santissimo Crocifisso, of the late eighteenth century, the fifteenth-century Torre Xibini, just outside the town, the old tonnara with the scieri, that is the fishermen's boats, the little houses around the square, the Palazzo del Principe, with its internal courtyard and the terrace, you will make a leap back in time of pure charm.

Also characteristic are the two small natural ports of Marzamemi, a village that can be reached in just three kilometers of walk.

Finally, the 8 kilometers of coastline of Pachino are perfect for snorkelers.
