Taormina | Sicily's Living Postcard
My most anticipated stop - and Sicily's weather delivered! ☀️ Taormina = Summer dopamine 🌊 Waters so blue they defy description 🚢 Cruise Port to Town: ▸ 15min walk to train station ▸ Buy round-trip tickets at counter but don't forget! ➔ Validate tickets at green machines before boarding ▸ Took 10:25 train (50min scenic ride) 💺 Left-side seats = uninterrupted sea views 🚌 Uphill to Town: ▸ Bus tickets sold right outside station ▸ First stop: Isola Bella viewpoint ➔ That glassy turquoise water! Those cliffside gardens! 🍧 Gelato Break: ▸ Cassata flavor = life-changing (went back for seconds) ▸ Sicilia flavor = summer in a cone 🚶♀️ Wandering Magic: ▸ Skipped crowds at amphitheater/cable car ▸ Let pastel alleys lead the way - every corner a saturated fairytale ▸ Lemon-themed shops bursting with ceramic sunshine 🍋 ⏳ Return Tips: ▸ Buses run every 25min (we took ~2pm) ▸ Trains often 15min late - check screens for platform changes! ▸ Golden hour at station = free seaside therapy #TaorminaDiaries #SicilianDreaming #GelatoTherapy #LeftSideBestSide
