La Bella Sicilia!! Has anybody ever been to Siciily? It is such a beautiful location. Its mediterranean culture, food, history make it a MUST to visit. Please share your stories about Sicily here. Or if you have any questions concerning Sicily, feel free to ask.

You are sicilian too, thats great!! I am also from there. It is such a beautiful place. I live there 5 to 6 months out of the year. I would spend the whole year there, but all my family is here. Which village are you from?

Wow, you are so lucky to be able to live there almost half of the year. Where do you stay when you are there? I am from a small village in Agrigento.

I am from Corleone, it is this small village half way from Palermo to Agrigento. But now I live in Agrigento and I like going to Siracusa for a couple of weeks. I find the sea so nice over here.

Yes, Siracusa is beautiful! The sea that surrounds the island is quite magnificient. Have you ever been to the beach at Eraclea Minoa?

I've visited the beautiful island 7 times! (ok, please note that I'm italian) Apart from archaeological and architecture beauties as greek temples and amphitheatres (Syracuse!) do not underestimate natural beauties: my suggestion: the river Alcantara as #1 , and the volcano Etna as #2, then the Eolian Archipelago as #3 Let's not forget food beauties (sicilian cakes are the best) and girls! As italian citizen (not sicilian) I am proud of such a gem in my country.

Then I suggest you a visit to Alcantara; often ignored by sicilian themselves, but it really deserves a visit! Sono di Caserta, le grotte dell'Alcantara meritano veramente, da vari anni sono anche riserva naturale!

I've been there once - just this summer actually. I spent a week in CefalĂș (Did I get it right!?). Really lovely place, one of the nicest place I've ever visited.
