What people say

Jacqui Toumbas
"Tonnara di Scopello is something everyone needs to see in Sicily, known for its beautiful setting and rich history. Originally an old tuna fishing complex, it has now been transformed into a museum and beach club, offering visitors a glimpse into the area's past while enjoying the scenic surroundings​. With its breathtaking views and unique location at the foot of the village, the Tonnara attracts many visitors throughout the day, so it's best to arrive early to secure a spot and avoid long lines​. The entrance fee grants you access to the shore and a deckchair, making it ideal for a day of relaxation and exploration. There's also a small café on site, offering light meals, pastries, ice cream, coffee, and drinks. Keep in mind that the Tonnara can get quite crowded, so it's wise to plan ahead and check for any private events that might affect accessibility​. I stayed at the accommodation which gives you access to a private beach area. "
