Best Time to Visit

Although events like the Film Festival and the exhibitions in the Greek Theatre all take place during the summer, this season is definitely when Taormina is the most crowded while also being characterised by a hot climate. The mildest seasons both in terms of tourists and temperature are spring and fall, when the sea is still warm and baths can be taken. There are also a couple of events that may be of interest, such as the religious procession "Madonna della Rocca".
