The beaches of north-eastern Sicily are generally composed of coarse-grained sand or sand mixed with gravel or pebbles of various dimensions and almost always grey. This section of coast, in the north on the Tyrrhenian Sea and in the east on the Ionian Sea, has few bays. The beaches have little shelter and are on the open sea, so they are often long and straight. In the areas of
Capo D'Orlando, Capo Milazzo, Capo Calavà and Taormina the coast is more jagged and has natural bays. In these sections of coast there are small sheltered beaches of different shapes. The sea is clean and crystal clear along the entire coast.
