My husband and I took a recent trip to Italy and loved Taormina. We have also been to Venice, Florence, Rome which were fine, just too busy for us. We loved Pienza, cinque terre but our favorite was Taormina. We loved the small town feel but still lots to do, restaurants, shopping, people watching. Taormina was great because we stayed up top but headed down to the beach as needed. I'm not much of a mountain person so I'd say first preference near the beach, but would love to hear of similar vibe spots in the hills if there are such.
Does anyone have suggestions for next towns /places that are similar to Taormina to try for our next trip to Italy?
Thanks!
