MARINA
DI RAGUSA
Administratively
belonging to Ragusa, Marina di Ragusa is the most renowned and the
best equipped of the province’s summer resorts. Endowed with
services and plenty of accomodation and entertainment facilities,
it is crowded in the summer months and densely populated all the
year round, hence regarded as a town in its own right. Marina di
Ragusa grew on the former Mazzarelli – its name until 1928
– and boasts important outputs of asphalt-stone, that is exported
to all Italy, and carob, from which alcohol is obtained. The new
centre developed around an old tower, built, as the one in Pozzallo,
by the Cabreras, counts of Modica, to guard against attacks from
the sea. Tourism and agriculture, notably the hothouse cultivation,
are the major resouces of Marina di Ragusa. Small and medium size
commercial businesses have also grown in the last years. |
