Holiday apartments and homes at Marzamemi - vacationing at Sicily's fantastic beaches

If you want to get to know the land and the people, the lovely seaside town of Marzamemi is a really good tip.

On the one hand, Marzamemi is an authentic fishing village with colorful fishing boats, on the other hand, it is a hip meeting point of the locals at the weekends.

On Sundays, Italians really dress up and after church love to stop and gather in the large piazza to chat about anything and everything.  

Nice restaurants with excellent dishes of fresh fish and small cafés and bars invite not only locals to spend a relaxing day at the seaside.

Fortunately, mass tourism has not yet invaded the southeast of Sicily. The few tourists who stop by are fascinated by the charm and the authenticity of the area.

Stroll through the lovely alleys, past bright stone façades, and let the feeling of a summer never ending work its magic.

Seaside resort San Lorenzo

After strolling through Marzamemi, you should stop for a refreshing swim in the sea at the seaside resort of San Lorenzo, 2 km off.

In July and August, San Lorenzo is very popular with Italians and turns into a very lively place. Outside these months, you can enjoy the crystal clear sea there to the full.

The gently sloping and fine sandy beach is also ideal for families with children.

Untainted nature at Oasi di Vendicari

Nature reserve Oasi di Vendicari, which borders on seaside resort San Lorenzo, was established in 1974. It is a unique coastal landscape defined by dunes, woodland and several lagoon lakes, the so-called pantani.

Marked-out hiking trails run through the ca. 1,500 ha reserve. With a bit of luck you can watch flamingos, cranes, pelicans and pond turtles – a great experience for the young and young-at-heart.
