Located in the centre of the Mediterranean, Sicily is rich of history.

Temples, theatres, wonderful mosaics, the splendid Arab and Normand architecture that cannot be found anywhere else, gorgeous baroque towns and churches are only  part of the invaluable 'treasure' left by the former rulers of the island.

Sea and Islands

Cliffs of black hardened lava, golden limestone coastlines swept by the wind, sunny beaches the colour of bronze, white sand in a clear blue sea: Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean sea and includes a large number of satellite islands and archipelagos.  

Visiting tuna factories, diving, sailing or simply sunbathing are only some of the things you can do during your stay….

Volcanoes

Sicily has the highest active volcano in Europe, Mt. Etna, and a series of other smaller ones in the near islands. Each one is of a different geological era and has its own kind of activity: exploring them is always a unique experience.

Climbing up  the legendary Mt Etna will give you plenty of emotions, as you will see red and black lava, dramatic views, picturesque villages on its slopes, citrus orchards and pinewoods, and the lunar desert landscape right at its top.
