Santa Agata di Militella (38°04'N., 14°39'E.) is dominated by a conspicuous church with a pointed and reddishbell tower. A long building, with a slender chimney, stands close W of this town and is conspicuous. A cone-shaped rocky peak rises close ESE of Santa Agata di Militella. San Marco d’Alunzio, a village with several bell towers, surmounts a round-topped mountain, 548m high, 3 miles E of the town.

A dangerous wreck lies about 1 mile offshore in the vicinity of Santa Agata di Militella.

Torrenova, a small village, stands at the foot of the mountain on which the village of San Marco d’Alunzio is situated. The railroad station and the bell tower of this village are prominent. Between Torrenova and Capo d’Orlando, 5.5 miles NE, the coast is formed by a sandy beach which is backed by high mountains.
