An open-air museum where you can discover the ancient tradition of Mattanza, which has been the main economic factor on the Sicilian coast for centuries. You will be guided through the premises of the tonnara to discover all the tools of the time, the art of weaving necessary to compose the nets and all the original boats. The faces of the tuna fishermen and the mattanza are shown on the basis of unpublished photos from years long past, which show the bloody struggle between man and nature.
All apartments have a view of the sea. As soon as you open the shutters of the room, the view leaves you breathless. Each room is unique, marked by its historical and architectural past, cared for so that you can feel the Sicilian tradition in every detail.
The Tonnara is the ideal place for events. A large Mediterranean garden on the coast overlooking the mountains is the perfect setting for your unforgettable moments. You will find spaces suitable for every occasion, and the incredible variety of colors and landscapes that this enchanting place offers will delight you.
“It’s easy to be happy here, but it requires an adjustment that is as much biological as cultural: learning to live on Sicilian time.” – Francine Prose, Sicilian Odissey
