Natural beauty: from the smoking craters of Mount Etna and its region with volcanic landscapes to the still relatively undiscovered beaches of the southern coast. But also Greek temples, Norman churches and Baroque buildings. Sicily is Culture, History and Nature!
You are spoiled for choice, as always in Italy!
Palermo, Catania and Siracusa are beautiful historical cities; the lovely Taormina is unique; then you should see Ragusa, Modica, Noto and the other special Baroque towns of the south; the Greek temples of Agrigento, Selinunte and Segesta; Roman sites like Piazza Armerina. But also kilometers of sandy beaches and hidden rocky coves ready to be discovered (Sicilian coasts surpasses 620 miles). We don’t know which one is the best side!

Sicily is wild Nature….and much more
Sure, Sicily is famed for its beautiful beaches, cuisine, and fascinating history.
So, what about Aeolian Islands archipelago? It consists of seven main islands (Vulcano, Lipari, Salina, Panarea, Stomboli, Alicudi and Filicudi) and believe us, they are all amazing. Perhaps here I ought to say wild nature talking about these fascinating islands. Few houses, simple people, tasty seafood.
Surrounded by rugged shorelines and brilliant blue-green waters, Sicily offers some of the most dramatic coastal landscapes. You will be surprised by the many facets of Sicily’s charming wild, often untouched landscapes, but always enchanting views. Definitely one of the world’s most captivating places.
Actually, what makes Sicily different from the rest of the country is its multiculturalism, having been ruled by Asians, Africans and Europeans.
As a result, this island is home to an impressive selection of architectural splendors, dating from ancient Greek and Roman times to unforgettable Baroque cathedrals and stunning monasteries. Historic sights, such as the Val di Noto and Necropolis of Pantalica, attract visitors from throughout the world.
