Sicily Traveller Guide

If you ask a Sicilian if he is Italian, the answer you are bound to get is, "No, I'm Sicilian." Sicily is one of the Mediterranean's most intriguing destinations, unique unto itself rather than a mere ìpart of Italy.It's a blend of ancient culture, zestful traditions, and cordial hospitality. The mild, sunny Mediterranean climate makes traveling in Sicily pleasant all year round. Even in winter you can take time out from sightseeing to sunbathe on golden beaches. Itís a land of breathtaking coasts and lush tropical greenery, of layered cultures, fallen empires, and ancient myths.

Sicily is a mountainous, arid island dotted with lemon, orange, almond and pistachio orchards - an extension of the Apennine Mountains separated from the mainland by the Straits of Messina. Many powers have occupied this strategically important area: Greeks, Romans, Arabs, Phoenicians and, of course, the Mafia. Historical sites related to those powers are part of the island's attraction. (A Mafia tour visits sites of various family activities and the graves of infamous godfathers and victims.) But there are many other reasons to visit Sicily: watersports, beaches of rock and sand (including black sand), rugged volcanoes and beautiful vistas, good food, prized ceramics and friendly people.
