after 1 week in the syracuse area, we moved to the north in order to come closer to the mount ETNA VOLCANO (Ätna). we have stayed 3 nights on a orange / lemon farm close to san marco village (district calatabiano) in the messina province of sicily. we liked our hosts, our apartment in an 100+ years old wine production building and also the possibility to move freely in the garden + farm ...

the orange farm
the (stone) beach in san marco was not nice and also the sea was somehow too wild + the waves too big in order to really enjoy swimming there
the castle san marco is a hotel today (castello san marco)
there was a small eukalyptus forest out there
what a nice church in one of the villages on our road to the etna mountain (ätna)
mt. etna, 3345m
there was still some snow from the south side in early june
there are about 300 craters at the etna
it was so interesting to see how the nature starts to flourish on the lava floor
