Lido Mazzarò

This is the nearest beach to Taormina, located directly beneath the town. It's well serviced with bars and restaurants, though it gets very crowded in the summer. Private operators charge a fee for umbrellas and deck chairs (around €20 to €25 for one umbrella and two deck chairs). To reach it, take the funivia from Taormina.
