Marina D'agro Holidays
Holidays in Marina D'agro are about wallowing in fabulous seascapes, rugged mountain views and to top it all, a fabulous pebble beach brushed by crystal Ionian waters.
Mainly composed of stylish villas and hotels, which cling to wooded hillsides and rocky peaks, this quiet seaside resort enjoys a wonderfully photogenic location beside the sea. And to complete the picture, you'll also enjoy memorable vistas over distant Mount Etna - a bonus that that gives Marina D'agro holidays an extra magic.
Sun- and surf-enthusiasts will love Marina D'agro's beach, although it's reached by steep steps that may not be good for young children or older holidaymakers. And if you fancy just relaxing and absorbing the breathtaking scenery, there are hotels like the dramatically located Iberotel Capo Del Greci - a true get-away-from-it-all-spot perfect for couples.
But holidays in Marina D'agro have more to offer. The buzzing bars and sands of Giardini Naxos are handily close, as is picture-postcard Taormina. Ride the cable car to this chocolate-box town to sample its designer stores, piazzas and trattorias. And don't miss its iconic Greco-Roman amphitheatre - it's a must-visit on holidays to Marina D'agro. But one last thing. Whatever kind of holiday you want - bargain late deals, full-blown summer jaunts or something else - no one does holidays to Marina D'agro better. "Marina d'Agro is serene and secluded, yet close to the action - and mama mia, what amazing views."
If we're talking scenic beauty, they don't come much more ravishing than Sicily's Ionian Coast. And if you want to avoid the crowds, Marina d'Agro is the place to head. Think tiny fishing hamlet. Think gorgeous blue waters. Think traditional atmosphere. The idyllic image you have in your head probably won't be far off the mark. This charming little village has a truly exclusive feel and simply oozes Sicilian charm, from its stunning backdrop of tree-clad hills to its pretty little shingle beach. At the same time, you're far from being isolated. Just four miles down the road you'll find the cable car station, where you can take the breathtaking journey up to Taormina - Sicily's most beautiful and trendiest town. Whatever you do though, don't miss the Teatro Greco, a stunning Greco-Roman amphitheatre which overlooks the sea. Drive a little further to the lively resort of Giardini Naxos, where there are plenty of open-air bars to sit and sip a refreshing cafe freddo and tuck in to a delicious piece of panettone. Back in Marina d'Agro, evening entertainment mainly revolves around drinking and dining. But if you choose the right eating establishment your pizza or pasta will not only come with your choice of mouth-watering Sicilian wines, but also breathtaking views which you'll be hankering for long after you've shaken the sand from your suitcase.
