Mascali and Mount Etna’s eastern slope live
The webcam looks towards Mount Etna from Nunziata di Mascali between the Ionian coast and the volcano’s eastern slopes.
The image shows visibility, cloud and light across the profile of Etna. From this distance the slope and its lava flows can be seen in a broad context.
The municipality rises from the sea through cultivated countryside and hamlets at different elevations.
History and local identity
The old town of Mascali was destroyed by a lava flow in 1928 and rebuilt closer to the coast. This event deeply shaped the town’s identity and its relationship with the volcano.
Nearby
Riposto, Giarre, Taormina and towns on Etna’s eastern slope make it possible to alternate between coast and volcanic landscapes.
