Donnalucata

Donnalucata, a seaside hamlet of Scicli, is a charming village overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, renowned for its golden beaches, fishing port, and authentic atmosphere. Its name likely derives from a freshwater spring that emerges near the shoreline, around which the first settlement developed. Historically tied to fishing and maritime trade, the village has preserved its traditional character over time. One of its landmarks is the Church of Saint Catherine of Siena, built in the 19th century in a panoramic position. Donnalucata also gained widespread fame thanks to the TV series Inspector Montalbano, which showcased its timeless charm. Even today, the village retains a genuine spirit, with colorful boats, fish markets, and the scents of seafood cuisine, offering an experience rich in sea, history, and Sicilian culture.
