Fly with us to the Island of Currents!
The small rounded island of Sicily, on the Ionian coast, located in the territory of the municipality of Portopalo, extending for about 10,000 m² with a maximum height of 4 m above sea level.
The island of currents is connected to the mainland by an artificial arm, destroyed several times by the waves of the sea. When low tide turns the island into a peninsula, it represents the southernmost tip of the Sicilian island, geographically further south of Tunis and further north of Hammamet.
On the islet there is a lighthouse, where decades ago the lighthouse keeper with his family stayed, rectangular in shape, with a large square in front. The lighthouse is also in a phase of decay, having been in disuse for years.
Little flora grows on the islet, but there are plenty of wild leek seedlings, capers and other shrubs typical of the Mediterranean scrub. Looking at the little girl from above always produces new and incomparable emotions!
