Pictures of Sicily, Italy

Condé Nast Traveller named Sicily one Europes best winter-sun destinations noting,

“Italy’s southernmost island is closer to Tunis than Rome and has winter weather to match. Visiting at this time of year allows you to get up close to Sicily’s incredible historic spaces such as the Temple of Concordia in Agrigento, which is reliably overrun in high season. With a distinct food culture, Sicily has gastronomic delights beyond summer’s glut of glorious fruit and veg – visit in February to experience the sea urchin season in full swing.” — David Annand, Men’s Editor of Condé Nast Traveller magazine

My friends I have to tell you Mr. Annand is right!

Best Time to Visit Sicily

At the end of January through early February, Paolo and I took a road trip around Sicily. Hence we know first hand what some of the best destinations in Sicily look like in Winter. Plus as introverts, we were delighted to have the most popular destinations in Sicily to ourselves.

While there was some cooler weather and those strong Mediterranean winds, we felt like we had Sicily all to ourselves. Everywhere we went from the capital city of Palermo to the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento we were able to take our time and really enjoy the sights.

Thus the inspiration for today’s Pictures of Italy gallery. We hope you enjoy Paolo’s pictures of Sicily. Click on any photo to see a larger image with captions and information about the location of the photo.
