About Taormina

Taormina rewards first-timers from the water: the cliffs of the Ionian coast, the islet of Isola Bella and the shadow of Mount Etna all look different once you are offshore. A short, easy introduction like the Taormina: 60-Min Isola Bella, Blue Grotto & Mazzarò Bay Boat Tour covers the headline sights in an hour, while the Naxos: Taormina Boat Tour with Snorkeling and Prosecco adds swimming and a glass of something cold. Both leave from the Naxos and Mazzarò waterfronts, minutes from Taormina's centre, so you can be on the water without losing a day of sightseeing.

Frequently asked questions

First-timers benefit most from short, close-to-shore trips that show the coastline you have just seen from the viewpoint above: Isola Bella, the Blue Grotto and Mazzarò Bay. One-hour and two-hour departures from Naxos or Mazzarò keep things simple, with no long crossings and easy returns to Taormina.
