It is true that with over 1,000 km of coastline, there is plenty to do without going inland, but when you consider that Sicily has a surface area of 25,708 square kilometres (roughly the same size as the US states of Massachusetts or New Hampshire, one and a quarter times the size of Wales and four fifths of the size of Belgium), and that this surface includes a 3,323 metre high active volcano, mountains almost 2,000 metres above sea level and hundreds of towns, large and small, exhibiting over 2,500 years of European history, it becomes clear that the Sicilian interior has much to offer. Our villas in the Sicilian interior are second to none, offering swimming pools, views to die for and a way of life that has remained untouched by mass tourism.
