Giardini Naxos is a comune on the island of Sicily in southern Italy, located in the Metropolitan City of Messina. It is located on the Ionian Sea coast, in a harbor between Cape Taormina and Cape Schis. It has been a beachfront resort since the 1970s.
Naxos, founded in 734 BC by Thucles the Chalcidian, was never a great city, but its temple to Apollo Archegetes, the protector deity of all Greek colonies, gave it significance in religious matters. Both Leontini and Catania were colonized from this location. Hippocrates, the Gela tyrant, conquered it in 494 BC. After supporting Athens during the catastrophic Sicilian Expedition, its antagonism to Syracuse culminated to its capture and destruction in 403 BC at the hands of Dionysius the tyrant. Though the site remained inhabited, the most of the activity moved to Tauromenium, which was nearby.
Following the assaults by the corsair Kheir-ed-Din in 1544, many military structures were built to defend Cape Schis against Barbary pirates who continued to attack and loot the coastal communities. Schis Castle, erected from an earlier 13th-century castle, Schis Fort, and Vignazza Tower were among them. The latter is a quadrangular watchtower that used to patrol the coast south of Port Schis; if any pirate vessels were spotted, the watchers inside the tower could shoot out smoke signals to inform the villagers and other nearby watchtowers. Vignazza Tower is located in Giardini Naxos' Recanati neighborhood.
It is now a tourist destination, with beaches, a panoramic view of the sea and neighboring hills, and a tiny fishing port among its attractions. It is popular with both foreign visitors and Italians, many of whom buy summer homes in the comune. Hotels, smaller pensions, taverns, restaurants, and pizzerias along the seafront.
Taormina is a little village in the hills above Giardini Naxos that is easily accessible by car or bus. There are also several churches and an archaeological park in Giardini Naxos.
