Experience a fascinating journey along the northern coastline of Sicily, facing the Tyrrhenian Sea, where history, faith, and power intertwine. This full-day tour takes you to the ancient town of Tyndaris, a strategic settlement that once played a key role as a military and maritime power during the First Punic War. Walking through this remarkable site, you will retrace centuries of history while enjoying breathtaking views from its elevated promontory overlooking the sea.
Discover the spiritual and defensive heritage of the region as the tour continues to Tindari and Milazzo. Tindari is an important religious destination, home to the Sanctuary of the Black Madonna, where the revered Byzantine simulacrum attracts pilgrims from all over Sicily. The experience concludes with a visit to the fortified citadel of Milazzo, where the impressive Aragon Castle stands as a testament to the island’s military past and offers sweeping views of the coastline.

Magda
Small and crowded, need to be careful about the slippery rocks atvthe bottom, covered with moss. Water shoes are recommended. The pool is a good place to watch the sunset, but afternoon hours not ideal for taking pictures of the pool (unless they are taken from the sea edge) because the contre jour effect (light behind the subject).
Marton
Very beautiful but can get crowded. If you want to avoid people go late when others start heading home. Bonus is the sunset if you can stay long enough. The place closes at 9 so they ll come and tell you to go home around 7:30. (They will tell you they close 8 or 8:30 but they just want to go home early)

Absolutely stunning place! We visited in May and had the whole spot to ourselves, not crowded at all. The water was clear and pleasantly warm for a swim. A magical and peaceful experience surrounded by nature. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet, scenic escape.
Laura
Very light hike for 5-10 min through an olive garden on top of the hill. The pool is surrounded by rocks (beach shoes are useful) and definitely worth a dip. Wonderful sunset spot. The path is starting from a big parkinglot and two restaurants (they were closed when we were there on the 1st of october). On the right from the parkinglot there is an other parking place with olive trees and it's possible to stay overnight with camper van.

I got there late in the afternoon of a cloudy day still it was amazing. First you walk through a Mediterranean shrubs/trees area, then a breathtaking view of the sea and a stairway to the pool of Venus. A many-sense experience where you can also hear the birds and smell the fragrance of aromatic plants. It’s a must-see place in all seasons. The entrance is free; the sign says gate closes at 7.30 but I left at almost 8 with no problems.
