Aci Trezza Wheelchair Accessible Tours

A few kilometers from Catania, in the municipality of Aci Castello, stands the mythological village of Aci Trezza.

The seaside village of Aci Trezza was founded in the 1600s, but in reality archaeological finds testify that this land was inhabited by the ancient Greeks.

The small village overlooks the Ionian Sea and in front of it the Islands of the Cyclops.

Aci Trezza is a dream place!

We don’t just tell you, who are particularly attached to this village, but the thousands of enthusiastic tourists who visit it fill them with emotion every day.

Homer narrates in the ninth book of the Odyssey of the birth of the Islands.

It was the anger of Polyphemus who, when he realized that he had been duped by Ulysses, hurled him against the great rocky peaks to avoid his escape into the sea, hence the birth of the Faraglioni.

But moving from myth to science, the birth of the Faraglioni is due to an intense activity of Mount Etna, about half a million years ago.

Aci Trezza has the only promenade that can make you walk not only on space, but also over time.

It is a village where the years seem not to have passed, where you can still find the colorful boats of the fishermen ready to take off towards the horizon.

The scent of fish coming from the marina, the affectionate ladies with the colorful shopping bag and the smart-faced guys weave the ropes.

But Aci Trezza is not only tradition, it is also elegance and lifestyle thanks to its many refined or trendy places.

Aci Trezza is above all a legend.
