From the cape there is a wide view of the Strait of Messina (Stretto di Messina) and all the Aeolian Islands (Stromboli, Vulcano, Lipari, Salina, Filicudi, Alicudi and Panarea). When visibility is good, you can see the high power pillars through which Sicily was once supplied with electricity above ground from Calabria.
The place has nothing to do with the Vatican. The name refers to an oracle that was visited by sailors during the time of Greek settlement.
