About Taormina
Taormina rewards first-timers with a rare combination: a clifftop Greek theatre looking out over the sea, lanes that tumble toward Isola Bella, and Mount Etna smoking quietly on the horizon. The easiest way to get your bearings is on the water — the Naxos: Taormina Boat Tour with Snorkeling and Prosecco shows you the coastline from below — before heading up to the craters on the Mount Etna Half-Day Tour from Taormina: Explore Craters and Lava Caves.

Frequently asked questions
Taormina's highlights sit at different altitudes, so first-timer experiences usually combine a coastal view with a mountain one. A short boat tour from Naxos gives you the coastline and Isola Bella from the water, while a half-day Mount Etna trip covers the craters and lava caves above town. Both are easy to fit into a first visit.
