From Catania to Randazzo

Welcome to Catania airport! Firstly, take the car you rented and drive for thirty minutes to reach S. Giovanni Li Cuti, only twenty minutes away but you may find traffic, where you can admire the wonderful black beach produced by the eruptions of the Etna volcano. Relax and think about the meaning of this tour between sea rivers and mountains just a few kilometers away from each other in an unrepeatable naturalistic context. Another added value is the mild climate throughout the year. Also good wine and good food - as you will begin to taste very soon in the Quaranta pastry shop, ten minutes from the black beach. You can take an aperitif with finger food and raw or fried fish by mediterranean sea and Sicilian recipe, you can finish with Sicilian desserts and wines, all sitting looking at the cliff of Catania. Then, take your car taking the A18 motor way towards Randazzo. Before arriving and going to the hotel, firstly enjoy a walk in the villages by sea or mountain you will meet on your way. I recommend to have a couple of stops in Aci Castello e Acireale. If you want to be at the hotel for dinner you should leave in the evening, driving toward Parco Statella in Randazzo. Enjoy yourself. In the meantime, if you want to learn something about incredible myths coming from the Greek phase of Catania, here is a beautiful audiotour, which can tell you also the myth of the Cyclops and Ulysses.
