Marzamemi · the tuna-fishing village

A working tuna-fishing village on the southeast tip of the island, with a 17th-century tonnara (tuna factory) converted into a small piazza of seafood restaurants. The Tonnara di Marzamemi is the working-museum bit; lunch is at Taverna La Cialoma on the main piazza (book ahead in season). After lunch, drive the back roads through the Pachino tomato fields — the tomatoes here are the best in Italy and the locals know it. Half-day from Noto.
