The New Castle Crisilio is situated at the entrance of Avola, in a region of southeastern Sicily where the landscape shifts between the vibrant greens of citrus groves and the golden hues of the Ionian coast beaches. This location is particularly advantageous for those looking to combine the tranquility of the countryside with the exploration of areas rich in history, art, and nature.
Just a few minutes away are the sandy beaches of Avola, perfect for long days by the sea, as well as the stunning cliffs of Gallina and Punta del Cane. Avola itself is a lively town, renowned for its Nero d’Avola wine and the almond orchards surrounding the town center, which boasts an enchanting 18th-century urban layout and a strong culinary tradition.
From here, it's easy to access the baroque cities of Noto and Syracuse: the former, a UNESCO World Heritage site, captivates with its golden stone buildings, cathedral, and elegant streets; the latter preserves extraordinary remnants of ancient Greek civilization, such as the Greek Theatre, the Ear of Dionysius, and the island of Ortigia, the historical and cultural heart of the city.
Nature enthusiasts will find unique environments in the nearby reserves of Cavagrande del Cassibile and Vendicari: the former features spectacular canyons, waterfalls, and tranquil ponds, while the latter is a coastal oasis with dunes, marshes, and archaeological sites, serving as a seasonal refuge for flamingos and many other migratory species.
To enhance the experience, the inland areas of the Iblei offer routes through authentic villages, watermills, and a cuisine that proudly narrates the deep identity of Sicily.
