The locality of Contrada Isola is part of the Maddalena Peninsula, a peninsula south of Syracuse that encloses the city's Porto Grande with its coastline. The peninsula has several places of historical and natural interest. The area overlooking Porto Grande was the scene of ancient battles between the Athenian military forces and those of the city of Syracuse in ancient Greece. Further south, along the coast, we find the town of Pillirina, where there are several quarries overlooking the sea, used both in Greek times and later. Pillirina has two very characteristic unspoilt beaches and boasts a landscape that has remained virtually unchanged over the years. Finally, at the southernmost point, we find the Capo Murro di Porco lighthouse, which, with its cliffs overlooking the sea, offers breathtaking views. The property is located just a few minutes from the motorway entrance and Ortigia, the historic centre of Syracuse. Catania's Fontanarossa Airport is less than an hour away.
