Sampieri Wheelchair Montalbano Accessible Tours

Until a decade ago, Sampieri was a small fishing village with a lovely center consisting of a maze of paved streets that run along the side of the seafront that accompanies the beach.

Even today it is a fascinating village inhabited by less than a thousand people during the winter who multiply in the summer.

There are still a few stubborn fishermen left, but today the main economic activities are agriculture and tourism.

In summer Sampieri turns into a very lively place full of tourists.

The very long beach extends to the end of the Scicli area protected by a long row of dunes and a pine forest.

On the cliff, at the end of the beach, stands the Fornace Penna, a wonderful ruin of industrial archeology that ideally closes Sampieri and its beach.

Accessible Montalbano Locations

In addition to the beaches and the historic centre, the Villa Penna in the Trippatore district, a place of events and cultural events in the area, and the Fornace Penna in Punta Pisciotto, which dominates the entire coast of Sampieri, are absolutely worth visiting.

Built in 1909 by the engineer Ignazio Emmolo, bricks were produced here which were exported throughout the Mediterranean.

Destroyed in 1924 due to arson, today it is a fascinating architectural structure on the sea, protected by the industrial archeology restriction and the landscape restriction extended to the entire Pisciotto district.

This furnace was the location of numerous scenes of Inspector Montalbano, known as the famous Mannera tuna factory.
