Italy’s sunniest coast
Sicily, the Med's largest island, blends Spanish oranges, Byzantine frescoes, and Arabian ice cream. Its 1,500km coastline is rich in sights, shipwrecks, and golden sand, with cuisine featuring chillies, citrus, and swordfish steaks.

YOUR GUIDE TO SICILY
UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITES
Here’s a case in point. Sicily has seven UNESCO World Heritage Sites. That’s as many as Egypt. In Taormina’s Teatro Antico you’ll watch a live opera from Ancient Greek seats. On Mount Etna you’ll meet volcanologists in a 4x4 jeep. At Palermo’s Palazzo dei Normanni you’ll snap photos in wide-eyed wonder. Why? Because this palace literally glitters with gold.
Your Guide to Sicily
Countless Beaches
Check Sicily on a map. This sun-soaked triangle is closer to Africa than Rome. Sicily’s coastline receives two rainy days all summer. The upshot? Countless beaches. Scented by rosemary. Lapped by hot tub seas. Don't believe us? Kayak the coastal reserve of Zingaro. It's an aquatic Eden guarded by peregrine falcons and Risso's dolphins.

Top-of-the-World Peaks
Here’s more explosive news. Sicily shatters like a firework into volcanic island gems. The Aeolian Islands are Mother Nature’s gift to charter guests. Each island rises to a top-of-the-world peak before crashing into black sand beaches. Snorkelers can swim in fumaroles - warm jets of seismic Champagne fizz.
Your Guide to Sicily
Unique Soul
Better still, each Aeolian Island has its own unique soul. Stromboli offers finer seafood than Tokyo. Panarea is like Mustique or Mykonos - in the 1980s. The tiny island of Basiluzzo hosts lizards and a lemon orchard. And absolutely no people at all. Sail, RIB or kitesurf among them all.
Sicily in seven words? Intrepid. Inspired. Sandy. Sunny. Fiery. Friendly. And absolutely delicious.
REASONS TO VISIT
WHY WE LOVE SICILY
Mount Etna
Europe’s largest active volcano is literally a blast. Take a dune buggy tour to its Planet Mars summit. Or chopper in for 3,000m altitude hikes. This UNESCO-inscribed volcano nourishes knockout vineyards. Like Cantina Graci. The winery offers mile-high tastings of D.O.P. Monte Etna reds that dance with volcanic fury.
Egadi Islands
Just west of Sicily the three Egadi Islands look like emerald butterflies resting on turquoise seas. The islands are so isolated that they once served as a maximum security prison. Imagine Alcatraz. But set in sunshine and scuba-friendly seas.
