Area Information : Taormina has been one of Sicily\'s top travel destinations since it became part of the European Grand Tour in the 19th century and Sicily\'s first resort. Taormina has remnants of its Greek and Roman habitation, a fine medieval quarter and castle ruins, and modern shops and restaurants. Perched on the side of Monte Tauro, the town offers fantastic views of the coast and Mt. Etna volcano. Below the town are excellent beaches where you can swim in the clear sea water. Although Taormina can be visited all year, spring and fall are the best times. July and August are hot and crowded.
How to reach : Taormina is 200 meters above sea level on Monte Tauro on Sicily\'s east coast. It\'s 48km south of Messina, Sicily\'s closest city to the mainland. Mt. Etna volcano is about a 45 minute drive southwest of Taormina and farther south is Catania, one of Sicily\'s largest cities. Taormina Transportation: Taormina is on the train line between Messina and Catania and can be reached by train directly from Rome. The station, Taormina-Giardini, is 2km below the center served by shuttle buses. Regular buses run from Palermo, Catania, the airport, and Messina arriving in the center of town. The closest airport, Fontanarossa in Catania, is an hour drive and has flights to some Italian and European cities (Italy Airports Map). A car ferry runs from the mainland to Messina, then take the A18 along the coast about 30 minutes. Driving in the center is limited. There are two large parking lots on the outskirts.
