Once you’ve arrived in Catania, I recommend that you first rent a car. Once you’re sorted with your ride, you’re ready to start your grand adventure.
The buildings that surround the central piazza are quite a sight, and it’s a central spot to do some proper exploring.
Next, head to the Roman Amphitheatre. It’s only a 10-minute walk from the Piazza, and an interesting route too.
This popular street has tons of shops where you can find beautiful Italian-made clothing, shoes and jewellery.
This will be a day of exploring, so a decent slathering of sunscreen and a water bottle are also sure to come in handy.
It’s one of the most famous bars in Catania for granita, which is a traditional Sicilian frozen sweet.
The landscape is otherworldly, it feels like walking on the moon. Coupled with this lunar landscape is the sea in the distance, making for a fascinating view.
