Discovering Messina by bike is a light and pleasant way to explore the city, with its lively squares, gently climbing streets and open views over the Strait. With just a few pedal strokes, you can move from the city atmosphere to the maritime panoramas, with the rare sensation of being able to admire everything without hurrying.

A simple and pleasant itinerary consists of skirting the seafront to enjoy the breeze, then heading up towards the historic center. Take a break near the cathedral and its famous astronomical clock, before strolling to the belvederes overlooking the port. For a more natural outing, aim for the quiet roads towards the hills: the late afternoon light is particularly beautiful here.
