Punta Secca
A small fishing harbor and lighthouse on the Ragusa coast. The seaside house here is Inspector Montalbano's home in Marinella in the TV series, and is now a guesthouse.
Punta Secca is a small fishing village near Santa Croce Camerina, with a white lighthouse and a small harbor. It became famous through the TV series Inspector Montalbano. The seaside house where the inspector swims each morning and eats on the terrace sits beside the village's small square and now operates as a guesthouse, and fans often come to take photos. Fine sandy beaches flank both sides of the village, and the water is clear, with far fewer visitors than the east coast. It can be combined with Ragusa, Donnafugata Castle and the beach at Scicli into a one-day drive. Punta Secca is about 30 km from Ragusa.
