Country Guide

Our Editorial team's advice

The loveliest beaches in Sicily are found on the east coast close to Taormine, and along the Gulf of Castellammare, between Monreale and Capo San Vito. Lovers of siestas should choose hotels along the beaches. As for excursions, if you are to go for one, it should be Cefalu. This charming fishing village lies in a splendid natural decor between the sea and the cliffs. It is preferable to visit in the morning to take advantage of the magnificent light and avoid the crowds of tourists who will come in later!
