Augusta is a port city on the eastern coast of Sicily. There are two ancient fortresses and a tower built to defend it in the sixteenth century, and later on, it became a base for dirigibles and seaplanes during World War II.

We continue on our tour of the Villa Torlonia grounds. Anna shows us the mansion where Mussolini lived from 1925 to 1943.

You won't want to miss the authentic and lively fish market in Catania, nor Brucoli, a fishing village nearby, with its grottoes and castle.

By way of Aci Castello, another town dedicated to the mythological Acis, we finally reach Catania, the second largest city in Sicily.

Anna and Marika take us to Rome's Villa Torlonia. There's an old Swiss chalet type of house there with as its theme, owls and bats!

More about Aci Trezza and the Cyclops sea stacks, and their roles in legend and tradition.

Acireale and Aci Trezza are two small towns in Sicily that get their names from Greek mythology, and they in fact look out on the Islands of the Cyclops, so this area, besides being incredibly beautiful, also has an important and very ancient place in history and myth.

Near Mount Etna is the river Alcantara, with its unique bed and walls that create a marvelous natural landscape. It's also a choice spot for extreme sports like hydrospeed, kayaking and rafting.

The sea and its harbour are two important features of the town of Maratea. Another important feature is the presence of forty-four churches! Our Lady of Porto Salvo (Safe Harbour) is the church that Antonio focuses on. He also speaks of the cult of San Biagio, patron saint of Maratea.

From the deep blue sea to the high, volcanic Mount Etna, there is still much to discover in Sicily.

There's a beautiful tiny island near Taormina, with its ancient castle, and some unique fauna.

What does Maratea have in common with Rio de Janeiro? Antonio tells us all about it.

Linea Blu takes us to the magnificent town of Taormina, with its centuries of history and natural beauty.

Squali (sharks) come out at night when there's no moon. Linea Blu's divers go to film this special event off the coast of Sicily.

Antonio's description of Maratea, with its restaurants offering fresh local fish, fresh mozzarella, local meat, along one of the most beautiful coastlines in Italy, will surely make it high on the list of places to visit on your next trip to Italy.
