Only 3km from mainland Italy, Sicily has its own distinct personality, language and people and yet it still suffers from a reputation for crime and corruption, thanks largely to the Godfather trilogy. In reality, there is splendid architecture, dramatic mountains and volcanoes, historic ruins and baroque towns. On top of all this think guaranteed balmy summers, wonderful fresh fish, excellent, inexpensive wine, gin-clear waters, dramatic cliffs and swathes of golden sand. Clusters of smaller islands are scattered round the coast… and the best thing? Sicily is totally unpretentious, a natural beauty with no concept of her own allure.
