FAQ

- How is the climate in the various seasons?

 

Spring and autumn

Usually there are temperatures between 20 and 30 degrees. In these seasons you can enjoy all that the island offers: sun, sea, nature and culture. Even Easter is a very nice period to visit Sicily. Sicilians often make their first bath of the year during Easter and many cities and in many countries there are processions of ancient tradition.

Summer

Temperatures above 30 degrees and possibly even 40 degrees. Despite the heat it is good in the seaside towns like Marzamemi. The great confusion is concentrated all in August. July and September are ideal months for those who appreciate the summer with the presence of other travelers without too much confusion. The summer often extends until October, often month of festivals (folk festivals with typical products) and in which you can take advantage of the warm sea temperature, thanks to the heating of the whole summer.

Winter

In Sicily, the sun is there even in winter and the sky is in the height of its blue. There are temperatures between 10-20 degrees. Indeed, during the beautiful winter days it is possible to ski in the morning, enjoying a magnificent view of the Mediterranean sea and in the same afternoon sunbathing on the beach. A spectacular feeling!

 

- Are there any practical things to know and local customs?

 

Transport

The most efficient means of public transport is the bus. All cities are connected by buses that pass frequently and are punctual and fast.

Money

The price level is a bit lower than in central or northern Italy. Restaurants and shops accept the most used credit cards. ATMs are easily found even in small countries. Banks are usually open from Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 1:00 pm. Post offices are open until 1:00 pm.

Water

In general, tap water is drinkable. Despite this it is advisable to buy bottled mineral water. In fact, most Sicilians do not drink from the tap.

Electricity

220-230 W. The electrical sockets normally comply with the standard.

The local population

Sicilians are often described as hospitable, friendly and curious. If you happen to stay on foot with the car, it is likely that a passerby stops to help her and, if necessary, to accompany you to your destination, and would consider an economic compensation for her help as an offense.

Shopping

Shops are open from Monday to Saturday, from 09:00 to 13:00 and from 16:00 to 20:00. In summer, in the afternoon, the opening hours are moved an hour later. 5.00pm - 9.00pm and more
