What to do in Syracuse in one day: a perfect itinerary
If you only have one day to visit Siracusa, don't worry: this beautiful Sicilian city has so much to offer and with a well-organized itinerary you can live an unforgettable experience. Here is our suggestion for a perfect day discovering the history, the sea and the flavors of Syracuse.
Mattina: alla scoperta della storia e dell’arte
Start your day with a typical Sicilian breakfast: a granita with brioche in one of the city's historic bars. Then head to the Neapolis Archaeological Park, one of the most important sites in Sicily. Here you can admire the Greek Theater, still used today for classical performances, the Ear of Dionysius, a cave with incredible acoustic properties, and the Roman Amphitheater.
Lunch: taste and tradition
After a morning of exploring, it’s time for a lunch break. The Mercato di Ortigia is the perfect place to savor the authentic flavors of Sicily. Try a fresh fish sandwich or a tasting of local cheeses and cured meats accompanied by a glass of Sicilian wine.
Afternoon: The Charm of Ortigia
Spend the afternoon discovering Ortigia, the historic heart of Syracuse. Lose yourself among the suggestive alleys until you reach the majestic Piazza Duomo, where you can visit the Cathedral of Syracuse, built on an ancient Greek temple. Walking along the coast, stop at the Fonte Aretusa, a freshwater spring linked to an ancient legend.
Sunset and evening: relax on the sea
To end the day in style, a walk along the sea of Ortigia admiring the sunset over the crystalline waters. To enjoy an excellent dinner, we suggest our seafood restaurant on the sea or under the stars of the historic center, our cocktail bar with its delicious recipes
