Fontane Bianche Holidays
The town is known for its wide expanse of white sandy beach - smooth, pristine and gloriously sunny it stretches for several kilometres in a wide arc. Soak up the sun during the day, and relax in the town's trattorias at night where it's customary to spend the whole evening relaxing and eating.
In contrast to neighbouring Siracusa, where touring historic landmarks and museums rules the day, Fontane Bianche holidays demand less energy. Its tourist amenities are plentiful, with shops, bars, trattorias, lidos and gelateria strung along a mile-long seashore. But it's the beach that really deserves attention. Boasting creamy sands and translucent seas, it's got everything sunbathers and swimmers could want, including watersports and clear-watered coves for snorkelling. In fact, when it comes to beach holidays in Sicily, Fontane Bianche gives the island's better-known beach resorts a real run for their money.
Talking of which, holidays in Fontane Bianche needn't break the bank. For instance, many companies offer great-value properties like the Cuba Villa - a terrific house that'll tempt couples looking for a self-catering base near a beach.
Wherever you stay though, there are three must-dos in Fontane Bianche. First, enjoy its animated nighttime atmosphere, perfect for sociable aperitifs, starlit dinners and late, fun nights. And whether you're on a fortnight's break or shorter, last-minute summer holiday to Fontane Bianche, the nearby towns of Siracusa and Noto are just too beautiful to miss.
The holiday resort of Fontane Bianche is the most popular in the area for swimming and sunbathing, the deep blue sea providing hours of pleasure to both locals and visitors. Try snorkelling in the nearby coves or simply relax on the beach - but if you prefer sight-seeing travel through the citrus groves to the city of Siracusa, only thirty minutes away by bus and bursting at the seams with diverse architecture, historic sites and cultural museums.
