The island
The island of Ortigia
The island, the historic center of the city of Syracuse, has always been a unique destination for travelers and today confirms its absolute authenticity and beauty. It is the beating heart of Syracuse, the perfect place to relax by the sea but also take a dip into Sicilian history and gastronomy. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it allows visitors to travel through time. Walking around Ortigia, one cannot help but walk headfirst, bathed in the white and light of this fantastic island, to admire the statues and decorations that enrich the palaces and churches of the historic center.

What to do
For those who have time
Ragusa (83 km) considered a city with two souls: the modern and the ancient (Ibla). Reconstruction works pay much attention to the upper part of the city (Ibla) where a unique place was created by the inspiration of an artist who created wonderful palaces and churches built with local stone in the flowery Baroque style.
Punta Secca (89 km) has a long history as a fishing village and more recently as a seaside resort and pilgrimage destination for fans of the “Montalbano” series.
Volcano Etna (100 km) is one of the world’s most active volcanoes, a prime destination for travelers to admire its crater and surroundings.
Taormina (130 km) is one of the most popular summer destinations on the coast of eastern Sicily. The city is known for an ancient Greco-Roman theater. Near the Theater, cliffs descend to the sea forming coves with sandy beaches. A narrow stretch of sand connects to the beautiful island, a small islet and nature reserve. Taormina offers an incredible variety of events and nightlife.
