About Avola
Avola is a working Sicilian town with a long sandy beach, a grid of pale baroque streets, and a fishing harbour that opens straight onto the Ionian Sea — an easy, unhurried base for a first visit to this corner of Sicily. The water is the best place to start, and the Boat Tour from Avola to Portopalo with a Visit to Marzamemi pairs a coastal cruise with a stop in one of the island's most photogenic fishing villages. If you would rather spend your first day inland, the 5-Hour Tour of Syracuse and Ortigia puts the baroque heart of Syracuse within easy reach.

Frequently asked questions
Avola is a small, unpretentious coastal town rather than a resort, so first-timer experiences here tend to be built around the sea and the nearby baroque cities. Boat trips leave from the local harbour toward Portopalo and Marzamemi, while day tours head to Syracuse, Ortigia and Noto.
