In a place in Sicily where the action of sea and wind modeled cliffs and created charming natural gulfs warm coloured with tenuous inks by nature, Terrasini tells us its long history among charming landscapes and ancient villages, venerable towers and ancient palaces.
And all around the culture of sea, the peasant culture, the natural environment where these economic and social resources were developed and that constitutes for Terrasini the point where past meets present, a continuous contact with the own origins as exposed in the naturalistic and archaeological sections of the Civic Museum.

Made precious by comfortable hotels, characterized by a mild climate, ideal place for vacation and tourists, Terrasini, a city rich of activities all around the year, becomes even more live during Easter, rich of colors, sounds and voices of the "Festa di li schetti (Bachelor Party)"

In Terrasini the history is written on every stone, is guarded in each small drop of its sea. This documentary records in the mind traditions and values that are not only of this pleasant country, but of all of the Sicily.
