The WoW Style

In today’s hectic lifestyle, holidays have become a compulsion. People work for more than 10 hours a day and keep thinking about work for the remaining 14 hours. So they need a break every once in a while, to relax their minds and bodies and return to work refreshed. And what destination is better than beaches for a perfect holiday? Beaches have a soothing temperature throughout the year. And with so many water sports, they become the most attractive holiday destinations.

One such beach destination is Sicily Island, Italy. It is the largest Mediterranian Island and has a rich history. No matter what type of traveler you are, Sicily has got options for everyone. Here are five reasons why you should already be looking forward to a Sicily vacation.

Accommodation

The first worry that comes in mind before planning a holiday is “Where are we going to stay?” But this is not a point of concern while planning a Sicily vacation. Select Sicily provides the best luxury holiday villas and apartments in Sicily. And there are so many options to choose from, that you can easily find one according to your requirements. You can choose a villa by the sea or a country villa and if you can’t keep yourself away from water, then there are villas with private pools too.

Beaches

Sicily has a 1000 km long coastline, which gives it the capacity to hold plenty of beaches. Also, the beaches of Sicily are considered to be the best beaches in the world. It is hard to choose as almost all the beaches are incredible, but here are some of the beaches you cannot afford to miss:

• Isola Bella: This one is located near Taormina and is known as the “Pearl of the Ionian Sea.” The beach is a little rocky and small but is a great destination for people who love sunbaths.
• Cefalù’s Long Beach: This one is famous for its historic backdrop. The backdrop is absolutely gorgeous and should not be missed.

Wine

Wine is the best way of celebrating the holidays. And Sicily is the best place to do that. Because Sicily is known for its remarkable wines that are made in Mount Etna’s ashy volcanic soil. Sicily has been producing wines from thousands of years and in the last few decades, it managed to become popular outside Italy for it.

Food

Food is the basic necessity of a holiday. There are many places that are famous for their certain dishes and people visit them just for that dish. In Sicily, you cannot find ‘Just a dish,’ because the whole cuisine of Sicily is influenced by its multiple invaders. You can find the influence of Greek, Arab and Spanish invaders in every bite you take.

Art

As already mentioned, Sicily holds a rich history. The place is full of museums, churches and many other historic sites. The two most incredible examples of Sicily’s rich history are:

• Temples of Selinunte: These were established in the 5th century AD. Many calamities have ruined some parts of it but still, the major parts have managed to survive through all. This a wonderful place to visit on a Sicily holiday.
• Syracuse: This is a historic town and is one of the best in “UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Italy.” The town is excellently preserved and gives a dramatic mix of new and old. Some remarkable greek ruins can be found in the city as, during the Greek empire, this was the key city.
