Sicily is an island off Italy it is essentially 'the ball that the boot kicks'. It is quite a poor island however tourism is a big part. It is the largest island in the Mediterranean and has a population of over 5 million. It has 3 airports and main cities, Palermo, Ragusa and many more.
When I visited Sicily this summer I was there for two weeks in a small town called Scili, however we visited Ragusa, Siracusa and others too. We also climbed Mount Etna Volcano and it was amazing, it was very hot and temperature went up to nearly 40 degrees. We visited also Greek temple ruins and the Turkish cliffs, these were cliffs of chalk like white powder which you could put on your skin as a mask.
The sea is very warm and clear and also there are lots of wildlife.
The food is famous for being very Mediterranean and Italian, fresh veg, fish, meet and pastas.
