Thanks to its central and strategic location on the Ionian coast, it is easy to reach the magnificent Sicilian cities of Catania, Mount Etna, Syracuse, Noto, and Agrigento, as well as tourist destinations like Taormina, Giardini Naxos, and the Alcantara Gorge. Riposto and its surroundings offer exciting opportunities for nature lovers who want to discover the charm of Mount Etna and the volcano in all its aspects. What can you do in the area? In addition to strolling through the historic center and along the coast, you can also admire other attractions such as the Tower Modò, dating back to the 16th century (which seems to have medieval or even older origins), the small harbor, the pebble beaches, and the marvelous deep blue sea. Following the coast north for about 3 km, you will reach the port of Riposto and you can discover all the beauty of the town. Here you will find several churches, such as the majestic Basilica of San Pietro, where we recommend entering to admire the paintings and the 19th-century pipe organ, the Church of the Abbey, and the Church of Our Lady of Carmel. Among other interesting buildings in the center, the Municipal Palace and Villa Pantano are worth mentioning, which can be discovered after a romantic and relaxing walk along the coast. Naturalistic (South Etna, North Etna, Alcantara), sports (trekking, diving, horseback riding, e-bike excursions, quad excursions), and cultural excursions can be booked directly with the company. Upon request, airport transfer service is available.

From the 18th to the 25th of October 2020, we spent a great week of vacation in eastern Sicily. The agriturismo was our base for excursions to Mount Etna, Taormina, Catania, Syracuse, and Ragusa. The property is surrounded by a beautiful citrus grove, the room essential but very clean. The breakfast is varied and plentiful. All the staff was extremely kind. We also want to mention the perfect management of the holiday bonus that we used. Definitely worth returning.

Beautiful rustic structure, very well renovated. Our room was very spacious, as well as the bathroom. Very wide and rich breakfast, dinner (all at km 0) very good. They also sell typical products, made by them. The managers and staff were very kind and professional. Only small negative point: there was no place to put the shampoo in the shower. Everything else perfect!

With my husband, we spent 3 days at the beautiful Agriturismo Galea. A perfect location to spend days immersed in the greenery, intoxicated by the scent of the lemon grove. The room was very large and bright, high ceiling, excellent cleanliness. In the shower box, a shelf was missing to put the shampoo, I would have found it very useful considering the comfort that the room offered. Abundant breakfast, from sweet to savory. Genuine food characterized by excellent quality seasonal products. Kind staff and attentive to details, we felt very pampered. Thank you for the hospitality, we will definitely meet again.

The farmhouse is nestled in the greenery of a wonderful citrus grove with a view of Mount Etna and very close to the sea. Bicycles and a pool are available to guests, a private table with an umbrella in front of each room where you can relax in peace. The staff is very helpful and kind. The structure is very well maintained and welcoming. Dining on the terrace surrounded by greenery is a plus, especially when the cuisine is simple, genuine, and tasty. Staying at Agriturismo Galea is a must!

Welcoming structure immersed in a large lemon grove at the foot of Mount Etna and with a view of beautiful Taormina. Friendly and helpful staff, as well as the attentive owner to the needs of the customers. It is worth noting the availability and kindness of Daniela, always ready to satisfy our daughter's desires. Very comfortable rooms with outdoor space for further relaxation. Bikes available even for children who can have fun in the dedicated playground. The pool is clean and surrounded by a super well-kept lawn. Pleasant the possibility of having lunch at the poolside kiosk. Super abundant breakfast with fresh products, cakes, pies, and cookies all made by them. Definitely worth coming back.
