Santa Maria la Scala<\/strong> is a fishing village clinging to the black lava cliff, a perfect backdrop for the colourful boats of fishermen, and the sea <\/strong><\/em>of the acesi<\/em> (people of Acireale). Nestled between the lush vegetation of the Timpa Reserve<\/strong><\/a> and the Ionian Sea, this seaside village is the cradle of mythological nymphs that tell plenty of legends and love stories.<\/p>\n

Things not to be missed: a tour of the town, perched around the square, and the Scalo Grande (port call); a sea stroll through the sea to explore the geological site Grotta delle Colombe,<\/strong> spectacular basalt columns that tell us about the history of Etna; a stop for a scrumptious fish meal and then up to Acireale<\/strong>, climbing the eighteenth-century Chiazzette<\/strong><\/em> trail.<\/p>\n
