The San Leone is a river in the Province of Agrigento, Sicily, Italy. Its main stream is 26 kilometres (16 mi) long, and it has a drainage basin of 206 square kilometres (80 sq mi).[1] Its source is in the commune of Santa Elisabetta and it discharges into the Mediterranean Sea in San Leone, a frazione of the city of Agrigento. It has various names along its course: at its source it is called Akragas, further downstream Drago, then Sant'Anna (the ancient Hypsas)[2] and the final 3 km until its mouth San Leone. Its largest tributary is the San Biagio (also: San Benedetto).[1] In the 19th century it was known as Fiume di Girgenti.[3]
