It's a very walkable area, with narrow streets, Baroque architecture, and plenty of restaurants and shops.

Couples often find Ortigia ideal for a beach-focused stay.

What is the best time of year to stay in a beach hotel in Syracuse?
The most popular time for a beach hotel stay in Syracuse is from late June to early September. During these months, the weather is beautifully warm and sunny, with average temperatures ranging from 25°C to 30°C, creating ideal conditions for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying the Mediterranean Sea.

This peak season sees the beaches bustling with activity, and you'll find all seaside amenities fully operational, from lido services to watersports rentals. It's a fantastic time for families looking for a classic summer holiday experience, with plenty of opportunities for children to play in the sand and adults to relax by the water.

As another option, May is a wonderful alternative for a beach hotel stay. The weather is comfortably warm, typically around 20°C to 24°C, which is still excellent for enjoying the coastline without the full intensity of the summer heat. In May, you may find better value on beachfront accommodations and it can be easier to secure reservations at popular seaside restaurants.
What beach activities should we do in Syracuse?
The best beach activities in Syracuse revolve around Fontane Bianche, a popular coastal area known for its beautiful sandy shores and clear waters.

Fontane Bianche, located about 15 kilometres south of Syracuse's city centre, is a fantastic spot for a relaxing day by the sea. The main beach stretches for several kilometres, offering fine white sand and shallow, turquoise waters, making it ideal for swimming and sunbathing. You'll find various lidos (beach clubs) where you can rent sun loungers and umbrellas, and many also offer watersports equipment for hire.

Couples looking for a serene and picturesque beach experience will find Fontane Bianche particularly appealing. You can spend your days lounging on the sand, taking refreshing dips in the Mediterranean, or enjoying a leisurely lunch at one of the beachfront restaurants. The calm waters are great for a romantic swim or a paddleboarding excursion together.

Families with children will also appreciate Fontane Bianche. The gently sloping seabed means the water remains shallow for a good distance, providing a secure environment for younger swimmers to play. Many lidos have facilities specifically for families, such as playgrounds and supervised activities, ensuring an enjoyable day out for everyone.
Can I cancel my beach hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right beach hotel in Syracuse for you.
