Areas Served: Aci Trezza: The islands, also known as the Faraglioni Islands , rise majestically from the sea towards the sky only a few hundred meters from the coast and can be reached on small fishing boats.
An ancient legend narrated by Homer and Virgil tells the story of Polyphemus, who was infuriated with Ulysses after he rendered him blind. Polyphemus hurled huge boulders at his boat from the summit of the Etna volcano, forming the island which is today known as "Lachea" and the three "Faraglioni Islands".
While taking a stroll through the streets of Acitrezza, you can visit the Mother Church of San Giovanni Battista, which holds a traditional festival every June 24, including the propitiatory rite "U pisci a mari". At the end of July, you can enjoy the flavors of the fish festival Padellone, an entertaining and unique traditional event. Only 1 km from Acitrezza, you can explore the Aci Castle , an ancient Norman castle constructed on a lava cliff suspended over the sea.
Today, the castle houses an interesting museum.
A short 35 minute drive takes you to the surrounding area of the highest active volcano in Europe. While in the Etna Volcano Park, you can see diverse alternating landscapes: widespread vineyards, thick forests of secular beech trees and lunar landscapes on the craters atop volcano. This area has long been recounted through Greek mythology and through the underground activity of the volcano, and the renowned ski area allows you the rare opportunity to ski down the mountain while looking out over the sea.
A few kilometers along the coast towards Messina takes you to Taormina. |
