LOCATION OF IFOSS 2022
IFOSS 2022 will be hosted by Hotel Village Baia Samuele in Punta Sampieri - Scicli
(Ragusa), Sicily from 17-23 July 2022.
Sicily is one of the most beautiful islands of the Mediterranean. The island is very rich
in archeological sites from various Ancient Civilizations. The sea, weather, food and the
wine are excellent. In particular Punta Sampieri - Scicli (RG) is located in the south
east of Sicily in a late Baroque area called Val di Noto. The Val di Noto area is
included in the Unesco World Heritage List and includes eight nearby towns: Caltagirone,
Militello Val di Catania, Catania, Modica, Noto, Palazzolo, Ragusa and Scicli.
The location of the school rises in the middle of an ample bay delimited on the west from
Sampieri and on the east from a cliff, on which is founded an ancient furnace, rare
example of industrial archaeology. The Hotel Village Baia Samuele stretches in a gentle
slant to the beach: 120 thousand square meters delimited from rows of secular cypresses.
An ultramodern village with an original architecture, pleasant design and all comforts
you can imagine. The frame of plants and flowers, typical of this angle of Sicily, in
front of the island of Malta, completes this gilded dream of the Mediterranean.
