Via Litteri, , 95021 Aci Castello CT, Italia, 64, Aci Castello

The Ionian coast is on the doorstep, with the basalt sea stack of the Isole Ciclopi at Aci Trezza and the Norman castle on a lava cliff at Aci Castello. Mount Etna rises inland and dominates the local horizon; the lower slopes begin within this radius. The Riviera dei Ciclopi protected marine area covers the coastal waters here. Catania is immediately to the south, with full city services, rail links and the airport. The area is known for volcanic coastal scenery created by Etna’s lava reaching the sea and for the Cyclops myth linked to the sea stacks.
