Sicily is one of my favourite travel destinations and somewhere I could visit a thousand times without getting bored. The island has so much to offer from its stunning scenery, ancient ruins, beautiful beaches and mouth-watering cuisine. It also has its own distinct character and charm compared to mainland Italy.

Visitors are often surprised at just how different Sicily is, with its own culture, architecture, cuisine and local dialect. Maybe for these reasons, Sicily can be slightly daunting for first-time visitors. There are so many blog posts, travel books and YouTube channels dedicated to Italy’s most popular cities – Rome, Florence and Venice to name a few – but Sicily remains quite mysterious and unexplored, despite being the largest island in the Mediterranean. In this post, I share my personal tips and suggestions on what to do in Sicily, the best places to visit, and how to make the most of your trip to this enchanting island.
