Taormina effortlessly blends old-world charm with coastal glamor, drawing a stylish crowd to its elegant streets lined with boutiques, lively cafes, and refined restaurants. In the heart of town, Corso Umberto hums with energy, especially in the evenings, while just beyond the center, you’ll find dramatic ancient ruins like the impressive amphitheatre that once captivated 19th-century Grand Tourers.
The coastline is just as captivating, with its mix of sandy coves, shingle bays, and rocky islets that dot the turquoise waters. Many upscale stays offer private beach access and convenient shuttle services, making the short trip down to the sea a breeze. Whether you're relaxing on a quiet stretch of sand or hopping on a boat to explore the offshore islands, Taormina’s seaside charm is hard to resist—especially outside the busy midsummer months.
