[quote=Anonymous]Sicily will be nice in the spring, occasionally rainy, not blazing hot, not terribly crowded. Agree to book all the way through if it is your final destination. That said, RyanAir is cheap and a lot like Southwest, but reliable and expansive for a non-US carrier. There are a dozen or more flights from Rome to Catania per day. I prefer the eastern side of the island. My personal recommendations are to base your stay in Catania if you plan to go and see as much as you can or base your stay in Taormina if you want a lot of relaxation and not a lot of adventure. My must-sees are Taormina for views and shopping; Cefalu for resorts and nature; Ortigia (island connected to Siracusa) for real slice-of-life, Mt. Etna of course, Brucoli (tiny fishing village) and Augusta (same), and Caltagirone (pottery HQ). My favorite vineyard experience is Gambino and my favorite agriturismo is Borgo. Go for a long Sunday lunch. It is lifechanging. - Former Sicilian expat[/quote]
