Sunsets over the sea are always special, so it might seem odd that a particular sunset would become a tourist attraction, but that's just what happens for two nights a year at Punta Secca.

That's just what happens on September 7-8 when people come with cameras in hand for a solar optical phenomenon - when the sun sets directly perpendicular behind the lighthouse of Punta Secca, creating a fun play of light that the locals call "lecca-lecca" -or lollipop.

Find a spot at the beach of Casuzze or the Punta di Mola and angle yourself for the right position to catch this intriguing, once-a-year effect.
