Sicily has been Greek, Carthaginian, Roman, Arab, Norman and Spanish, and each left something behind that the next did not remove. Palermo alone holds a cathedral with Arabic inscriptions and Byzantine mosaics under a Norman roof.
This route works the north-west, which is the quieter half ’ a nature reserve of cliffs and coves, an island where the first underwater archaeological museum was laid out on the seabed, and the Aegadians, where prehistoric cave paintings sit above beaches nobody has developed.
Every route we shape is a starting point, not a fixed schedule. Stay a second day where the light is right, move with the weather, or follow a captain who knows the cove worth the detour. That freedom is the point of chartering. What follows is one considered way to read Sicily; the rest we tailor to you.
