Flights to Sicily Catania Airport
Our flights to Sicily Catania Airport land you in Italy’s romantic little sister. The isle of Sicily, which floats off the coast at the bottom of Italy’s boot, is famed for its Medieval villages, Roman ruins and picture-perfect villages. On the east coast of the island, you’ll find a cluster of must-visit destinations, including the popular trio of Giardini Naxos, Taormina and Letojanni. Family-favourite Giardini Naxos used to be a fishing village, and while the action here still revolves around the coast, these days it’s all about the beach. This sand-and-pebble stretch is lined with shops and restaurants. Head a little way down the coast and you can wander through the cobbled streets of Taormina’s Medieval quarter, and snap some pictures of the famous clocktower. There’s a famous amphitheatre to visit, too. Pint-sized Letojanni lines up a palm-shaded slice of Sicily’s coast. Things are pretty slow-paced here, so you’ll be able to take in the postcard-perfect scenery at your own pace. What’s more, staying on Sicily’s east coast gives you access to Mount Etna – Europe’s tallest volcano – which measures up at an impressive 10,890 feet. Or, head up to the island’s north coast and book a hotel in Cefalu. It’s a real summer hotspot, attracting international tourists as well as holidaying Italians. The secret to its success lies in its eight-kilometre beach and the ancient La Rocca landmark, which houses the ruins of the Temple of Diana. You can board a direct flight to Sicily Catania Airport from London Gatwick, Birmingham and Manchester Airports. The flight time comes in at just over three hours.
