Taormina, the Pearl of Ionian Sea, is located on the island of Sicily. Close to the ancient Greek colony of Naxos and surrounded by the Ionian Sea and the picturesque island of Isola Bella, the town will welcome you at any time of the year.
Taormina has a panoramic view of Mount Etna, the coast of Calabria, and the city of Syracuse. Among the various remarkable locations in the area, Piazza IX Aprile is a must-see, the elegant public living room of Taormina is characterised by the outdoor bars and artists waiting to paint your portraits. The balcony here gives an awe-inspiring view of Mount Etna, the remains of the ancient theatre of Taormina, and the bay of Naxos.
