Taormina is a town built against a hill and one of the most popular seaside resorts on the Italian island of Sicily. Most tourists don't stay in the town itself, but in the tourist resorts of Giardini Naxos south of Taormina or Letojanni north of town.
The town has approximately 11,000 inhabitants.
Taormina is located on Sicily's eastern coast, about halfway the larger cities of Messina and Catania. Part of that coastal area is a nature reserve, Riserva Naturale Isola Bella, including the coastal strip to the left of the main beach and the peninsula to the right of that beach.

Taormina has no regular public transport, but there are shuttle buses connecting the train station in the city's center with the seaside resorts Giardini Naxos, Letojanni and Castelmola.
