The beaches of the Mediterranean are renowned the world over. Enjoy a day in the Sicilian sun when you board a comfortable motorcoach and enjoy a one-hour narrated drive to Giardini Naxos. As you approach Giardini Naxos, enjoy panoramic views of the Straight of Messina. Upon arrival at the beach, you'll have two and a half glorious hours to spend as you wish. Your escort will offer an introduction to the area, the beach, and facilities available to you. Take a swim in the azure waters, beachcomb or take an unguided stroll into this fascinating town, the first Greek colony in Sicily. Window shop, grab a slice at a pizzeria and focus your camera on the 18th-century church and the 13th-century Schiso Castle, then shop for ceramic souvenirs. Return to port on a relaxing ride.
