The Area
With seven hectares of private nature reserve at your private disposal, and a further fifteen hundred hectares at your fingertips, you may not want to move very far. Although the beach is accessible on foot, passage is restricted due to the fact that sea turtles use the area as a nesting ground.
The nearest beaches, therefore, are accessed from outside the property, just a few minute's drive and walk, and are rarely crowded (except in the height of summer).
The nearest main town is Noto, the most easterly of a chain of baroque towns now protected as a UNESCO World Heritage site. It is also perhaps the most perfect of the seven towns, which were all rebuilt in flamboyant style following a major earthquake in 1693. Noto is also where you will find the best supermarkets, grocery stops and amenities. For dining, both Noto and Marzamemi, a very attractive little fishing village, have some excellent restaurants.
If hiking in the hills is your thing, then there is some spectacular scenery in the rushing streams and waterfalls of Cassibile and at the Paleolithic burial sites in the dramatic gorge of Pantalica.
Syracuse is just half an hour's drive away, and at least a day there is highly recommended to anybody spending a week or two at Sighilli. A little further afield, the other baroque towns of Modica, Ragusa and Scicli are also easily reachable for day trips.
