This is really a really beautiful spot!!

Very cold water all year round. Very busy in summer. After rain in winter, the gorge is partially closed due to the risk of floods.

It is the beach of Taormina

You can probably start a tour through the canyon here.

At the beginning of the Centro Storico. There is always a lot going on here. The buses stop here and the cable car passengers head for the entrance.

As a remnant of a once mighty fortress wall through which the history of the place runs, this natural stone building invites you to immerse yourself in a world full of charm and history. When strolling along the lively Corso Umberto, Taormina's lifeline, there is no way past the Porta Messina. This gate not only marks the entrance to the tourist, medieval center, but also the beginning of a journey through time and culture. It is the point where the modern hustle and bustle fades into the background and the visitor is welcomed by the picturesque beauty of Taormina. The streets that stretch behind Porta Messina are lined with picturesque shops and small alleys that invite you to linger and explore. The famous archway opens onto a world where the Middle Ages meets the Mediterranean, offering a first taste of what makes Taormina so unique. The town itself, built on a terrace of Monte Tauro, about 200 meters above sea level, offers breathtaking views of the Ionian Sea, with Messina to the north and Catania to the south. Mount Etna, Europe's highest and most active volcano, provides a striking backdrop to this historic gem.
