Planning to visit Taormina in March? Wondering what’s the weather like in Taormina in March? Here is our guide from the local inhabitants.

In Taormina, March is a transition month between winter and spring. Taking into account that winter in Taormina is a heavily rainy season, locals consider March rather winter than spring due to the high possibility of rain. Since Taormina’s old town is reachable by foot only in most parts, pack comfy shoes and a raincoat—better safe than sorry!

However, don’t get disappointed! March is a less rainy and more sunny month than February. Surely, you will be able to enjoy many sunny days and crystal blue skies too!

In March, the temperatures range from 10°C to 17°C (50°F to 63°F), therefore, follow Italian advice and get dressed “like an onion” – a T-shirt, a hoodie, and a light jacket/ a raincoat.

The great news is that 80% of the restaurants, bars, and shops will be open in March already! As in February most of the commercial activities are closed due to the low season.

Beach: not yet sunbathing or swimming, however, “yes” to a relaxing stroll on the coastline.

What to pack: a long-sleeve T-shirt, a short-sleeve T-shirt, a hoodie, a light winter or midseason jacket/ a raincoat, an umbrella, a pair of comfortable shoes.
