This Sicilian resort town features several popular beaches that get quite busy in the high season, most of which are lined with shops, cafes and bars. Otherwise, visitors will find a small archaeological park and museum detailing some of the town's history. From this port, cruisers can also visit Taormina, which can even be reached by foot by more active travelers.
