    Santuario della Madonna di Tindari

    Continue your private tour and visit the temple of the Black Madonna, which housed a statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, carved from cedar and had a black color.

The temple was destroyed by Algerian pirates in 1544 and rebuilt several decades later. From the terrace of the temple you will see the foot of the cape lie the Marinello lakes, called the "dry sea", which are a curious sandy formation with several small reservoirs in the center.
