Mesmerising Sicily

Although part of Italy, the island of Sicily has its own distinctive, enchanting culture and charm. Its seductive beauty and idyllic positioning in the heart of the Mediterranean makes it the perfect holiday destination for those who love the lure of sun, beaches, culture, authentic fare and an abundance of amazing natural spectacles. If you’re looking for a unique summer getaway then look no further than scintillating Sicily.

Having at one time or another been ruled by the Greeks, Romans, Arabs, Normans and Spanish, Sicily is a melting pot of cultures, food and history that gives it a real distinctive character unlike anywhere else. Sicilian food shows traces of all cultures that have existed on the island over the last two millennia and is just as fascinatingly diverse as it is mouthwateringly good.

The Mediterranean island packs quite the punch when it comes to epic architecture too. Culture vultures will be captivated by the history of the island, with over a dozen castles and fascinating archaeological sites to visit, including the beautifully preserved Valley of the Temples.

The island of Sicily itself consists of wide coastal plains dotted with secluded coves with white sandy and pebbled beaches, a stunning backdrop of picturesque valleys, high mountains and of course, the mighty Mount Etna. Every corner of the island brings something unique and beautiful that truly sets it apart.

Taormina
Taormina provides postcard-perfect backdrops that many associate with the beauty of Italy. Golden hued buildings are tucked behind vines and blooms that spill over the tops of buildings and balconies, its ancient Greek amphitheatre makes for a must-see spectacle and the crystal clear waters make its beaches truly idyllic.

Giardini Naxos
Just down the road from Taormina is the wonderful family favourite Giardini Naxos. This is a popular destination for Italians to holiday, providing a charming corner of Sicily that has grown from a sleepy fishing village to a thriving and beautiful seaside resort.

Letojanni
For a real slice of ‘la dolce vita’, Letojanni provides a laid back and slower paced side of Sicily. Long sandy beaches are ideal for spending the day by the shore in the Italian sunshine while a maze of quaint winding streets, dotted with great restaurants make for ideal places to lazily traverse and discover.
