Sea view villas in Sicily
The east coast of Sicily faces the rising sun. Mornings begin with light spreading across the Ionian, and on clear days the mountains of Calabria appear on the horizon to the north. Behind the coast stands Etna, Europe's highest active volcano, often with a thin plume of smoke above the summit.
Each villa below was chosen for the view from its terraces. Near Augusta, an estate looks from Mount Etna to the sea. Below Taormina, an outdoor bar faces the water, and at Giardini Naxos steps drop from the pool terrace to the lava rocks. South of Siracusa, in the Plemmirio reserve, a heated infinity pool looks over turquoise water 50 m from the gate, while at Fontane Bianche and Arenella infinity pools meet the line of the sea.

On the Ionian coast the sun rises over the sea. Breakfast on the terrace is often the most beautiful moment of the day.
From much of the east coast the volcano fills the view inland, snow capped in winter and spring, dark and bare by late summer.
Visibility is sharpest after a breeze has cleared the haze, when the Calabrian coast can seem surprisingly close.

Questions before you choose
Do all rooms have a sea view?
Not always. The view is usually from the terraces, pool and main living spaces. If sea views from bedrooms matter, tell us and we check the layout with each owner.
Where is the nearest airport?
Catania serves the whole east coast, around an hour from Taormina or Siracusa. A car is the easiest way to move between villas, towns and beaches.
