While most visitors today just pass through on their way to the Aeolian Islands, Milazzo is certainly worth a visit if you’re in the area – don’t be put off by the industrial development just up the coast!
The old town centre itself is charming and retains some fine buildings and churches, while the cape is also well worth exploring, particularly the splendid Norman castle, the cavernous rock church of Sant’Antonio di Padua and the beaches of the Riviera di Ponente.
Great views and sunsets are guaranteed and there are several good walking tracks.
