Welcome to Sicily

Island of Sicily feels different from any place else in Italy or other parts of Europe. Its landscapes of tall mountains, vast coastal plains and inland valleys are more diverse than those of many continents. Mount Etna, Europe’s most forceful volcano, is also Sicily’s tallest mountain and most famous natural wonder on this magnificent island.

Right at the centre of the Mediterranean, but still very much in Europe, Sicily is very different to rest of Italy, yet the perfect destination for your holidays - Sicily Holidays. Largest (25,708 sq km) and one of the most densely populated islands in the Mediterranean, Sicily is known for its dramatic landscape, harsh but seldom graceless. From mountainous interior and rugged coastlines to remote outlying islands and the volcanic foothills of Mount Etna the island of Sicily is remarkably rich in what can only be described as spectacle.

Changing with each region, you will notice that the countryside, towns and monuments on Sicily are a little more extravagant than anywhere else. Vast coastal plains, inland valleys and extensive areas of mountains in the northern and eastern parts of island, home to Europe’s largest active volcano - Mount Etna (3,323 m).

Sicily holidays would not be what they are without the most important factor: the wine and dining. As the star attractions, food and wine are by far the most important reason why people flock to Sicily. Too many to list, authentic restaurants are plentiful and good wine is easy to come by. While there, try traditional dishes that are unlike those with the same name in other countries.
