All the amenities you need are provided: bar, supermarket, pharmacy, petrol station and restaurants and in the beach will have free parking and free showers. The economy of the town is mainly based on agriculture and even thanks to this the sea water is always clean and clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To the east of the beach there is a rocky coast, leading 5 km to the amazing beach of Sampieri. From the beach of Cava d\u2019Aliga you can walk on the \u201cVia del Mare\u201c, there is a long and beautiful path over the rocks (around 3 km).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In<b> Via del Mare<\/b> you will cross \u201cla Grotta\u201dand will see \u201cIl Corvo\u201c, \u201cil Faro del Corvo\u201d ( Corvo\u2019s lighthouse ) and the \u201cSpaccazza\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>La Grotta<\/b> is a natural cave in the rocks at the beginning of the Via del Mare trail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>La Spaccazza<\/b> is a big cut in the rocks (around 15 meters long and 6m deep ) and is at the end of Via del Mare. In both areas locals go to cliff jump into the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Il Corvo<\/b> is a small natural rock port, at the middle of the Via del Mare. Around 15 years ago it was used by local fishermen. <b>The lighthouse of Corvo<\/b> was formally used by police to check the coast, but is no longer in service. Corvo is near the Spaccazza and surrounded by the most beautiful part of the rocky coast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently in this site, like in Scicli, Modica and Ragusa Ibla was filmed the popular tv series <b>\u201c The Inspector Montalbano\u201d.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many people go to Via del Mare to sit on the rocks and enjoy the afternoon views aswell as the colourful evening sunsets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the west side of the beach, just after a short rocky coast starts Bruca, the longest beach of Scicli\u2019s territory. <b>Bruca <\/b>is a long and idealic beach. From here you can walk 4 km to <b>Donnalucata,<\/b> crossing en-route the beach of Filippa. The beach of Bruca is mainly frequented by locals and is not overcrowded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In essence (with the exception of mid August) all beaches, like the towns, are never overcrowded, allowing you to enjoy Sicily in complete relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sea, beach, amazing sicilian food and architechture will ensure you enjoy your stay and be eager to return soon!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few kilometers from the Bed and Breakfast U Marchisi you will find Scicli, a town nominated by Unesco, World Heritage of the Umanity for its architectural baroque wonders and, for many years, the set of the famous tv series \u201cThe Inspector Montalbano\u201d.
