Sicily

Sicily · Italy · Catania

An active volcano you can drive most of the way up, Greek temples better preserved than the ones in Greece, and a food scene that borrows from every empire that ever passed through.

The best time to visit Sicily is Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 32°C (89°F). Local time there is 15:23 (UTC+2).
