with its intricate network of small winding streets and steps, is
an enchanting and unforgettable town. Decorated with geraniums and
bouganvilles, it offers splendid glimpses of the coast and Mount
Etna. A visit to the magnificent Greek Theatre is not to be missed
at any cost. Taormina is Sicily's best-known resort, located high
on Mount Tauro looking out over two grand sweeping bays.

and famous in the world. It is a bay made up of several picturesque
beaches and rocky inlets which offer a good range of water sports
and boat trips to nearby sea caves. The local mild climate allows
visitors to attend the beaches almost all year round.
