I❤️ Markets: Catania

The energy of Mount Etna and the sea

I am in love with the energy of Catania and the towns nearby. Etna is felt everywhere.

I adore the wines from Etna with their minerality.You will see the black lava stone everywhere.

Tons of street food everywhere. Wonderful pastry shops and pistacchio desserts everywhere.

Look for the Chiosce

The markets are so alive. Vendors calling out to attract business. It’s wild!

The Guide is for the town of Catania, but you can use Catania as a base and add on some day tripping up to Etna or down to Siracusa.

Most people now also want to go to Taormina.It’s the most touristy, but there’s a reason.Below Taormina is Isola Bella and the Giardino Naxos also to visit.
