Wide terraces with view on a tropical and Mediterranean garden, perfect for relaxing, getting tanned and reading. There’s also a barbecue for cooking the local fresh fish.
Torre Archirafi is situated in a very favourable place, at a short distance from all the most important turistic and cultural sites of Eastern Sicily: Acireale (12 km), Catania (25 km), Noto( km), where you can see the famous sicilian baroque, Taormina (15 km) Piazza Armerina and Siracusa (100 km), known all over the world because of their rich history, their wonderful panorama and for being used as important film location.
And of course there are the Alcantara Gorge and the Volcano - Etna, with the river, a lot of beautiful paths through the forest, near the lava flows. In winter you can also ski on its slopes.
Few meters far from the apartment you’ll find the beautiful promenade along the seafront, now enriched by a panoramic cycle track. Two bikes waits for you inside our car box!
Two kilometers away from Torre Archirafi there’s the turistic port of Riposto and a big and tipical mediterranean fish market, open all days in the morning!
