Holidays in Sicily offer the complete package for a romantic island escape with all the excitement of a city break. You can explore shimmering seas, erupting volcanoes, and ancient temples. The largest island in the Mediterranean Sea meets various holiday needs. A short distance from Italy's southern coast, you may expect to discover plenty of sandy beaches and sunshine. However, the abundance of historical sites, Greek architecture, and the magnificent Mount Etna ensure that your trip to Sicily will also be memorable. With the intense religiousness that pervades, Sicily has transformed holidays into events of immense attractiveness, attracting thousands of visitors who come to admire the grandeur of festivals that have been going on for generations. Our Holiday Vibes are Good Vibes Only!

Itinerary
Day 2
Hit the Beach
Take a rental car—which is simple to obtain at the airport any time of the day and is necessary for Sicily if you want to travel outside the cities—and drive the 90 minutes down the coastal highway east to Cefalu. One of the island's most stunning waterfront settlements is this beach hamlet on the north coast, which combines centuries-old churches with beach bars offering delicious grilled fish on sandy shores. Homes and businesses are chiselled into the hillside. For an early seafood lunch, arrive late in the morning (parking near the beach). Get an outdoor seat at Lo Scoglio Ubriaco so you can savour their scampi pasta and plates of fresh sardines with ocean views—and the required bottle of crisp Vermentino. The central waterfront road, Via Carlo Ortolani di Bordonaro, is dotted with modest restaurants.
Day 3
Wine Tasting in the Countryside
Even though the best-known Sicilian wine is made in the east, Menfi, home of Planeta, one of Sicily's most prestigious wine estates, is a simple day drive from Palermo. The good autostrada from Palermo takes you there in about an hour via the interior. However, we advise leaving earlier in the day and taking the scenic route, which will take you down the coastal highway heading west toward Trapani and past beaches like Tonnaro di Scopello. Swim or stroll along the beach before continuing south to Planeta in time for lunch. Look at the estate's 16th-century farmhouse, which has been in the family for 17 generations and is located on 720 acres of chardonnay and Nero d'avola vines. The influential Planeta family manages the estate and owns six island wineries. Just remember to reserve lunch and tastings on their website in advance; walk-ins might not be accepted.
