This is one of those places that I could discover only because of the stubbornness of my mother. I remember the skepticism of our relatives and their surprise at seeing the pics of my father.
Moral of this history: Contrada Concerie [Tannery District] became one of our favorite places, and, in the maternal foresight, it's still considered one of the most spectacular stretches of the Pachino coast.
Here too the history intertwines with the natural beauty in a difficult bond to be dissolved: if you are lucky and if you have good power of observation you could be able to locate, under the clay and the beached Posidonia, the ancient thanks for the skin tanning, that was processed by a method coming from the Cretan and Phoenician culture.
And then the high rocky coast, the color of the sandstone on which the waves break up, the natural caves,  the sound of water under your feet, the breathtaking views overlooking the sea, will not leave anyone indifferent.

Swimming in that natural caves seemed to us kids an awesome challenge: the high rocks inside them, scattered with sea-urchins, made us execute delicate maneuvers to avoid to be stung. Anyway, the crystal clear water the play of light on the walls largely repaid us for the "risk". There was a great satisfaction for me, as I've never been a good swimmer.

I don't know if because of some unauthorized buildings, or some whatever reason, tha access to the path is closed, or even disappeared unless you don't climb over some fence or some wall. Anyway, this small strip of coast worths a visit, especially at sunset, when the sun rays light up the cliffs with a particular, breathtaking light: at that time the rock walls look like gilt bronze, as for some strange alchemical phenomenon, and the sky is like an iridescent blanket, that changes its color up to become a black, full of stars, veil.
