Located in the south of Italy, Sicily is certainly one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean. With its incredible natural setting where mountains, volcanoes and sea meet, its historical sites and its sunny cuisine, it invites you to countless and wonderful discoveries.
Surrounded by warm and clear waters, Sicily invites you to enjoy the sea in a thousand and one ways. First of all, you will have the choice between many enchanting destinations. On the east coast, discover the sublime beaches of Taormina, the pearl of the Mediterranean, or those of Syracuse, full of history. In the western part of the island, enjoy the emerald waters of San Vito Lo Capo, the beautiful beach Lido dei Fiori de Menfi or the small sandy coves of Sciacca. Perfect for idleness and swimming, the Sicilian coastline is also ideal for diving, windsurfing and kitesurfing.
After a few hours of relaxation by the sea, discover the fabulous architectural treasures of the island. In Agrigento, visit the Valley of the Temples, an incredible UNESCO World Heritage site where you can admire the temples of Zeus, Heracles and Concorde, the best preserved. Then join Syracuse to see the superb Greek theatre, bigger than that of Epidauros, the temple of Apollo and the cathedral, bursting with whiteness. But also take the time to visit the superb baroque towns of Val di Noto, the Roman villa of Casale and the astonishing Norman monuments of Palermo (the Norman palace, Notre-Dame-de-l'Assomption cathedral...).
Take advantage of your stay in Sicily to discover all its natural wonders. The most famous of these is certainly Etna, the largest active volcano in Europe. Walking the paths of its park, you can approach the four craters of its summit and enjoy incredible views of the Ionian Sea. But also enjoy the Madonie regional park, the Anapo valley gorges, the Zingaro and Torre Salsa nature reserves or the superb islands of Stromboli and Vulcano. During these escapades, take time to taste the flavours of Sicilian cuisine : rice arancini, cazzili, caponata, couscous alla trapanese, badduzze...
