Ancient Greek ruins stand sentinel above the Ionian Sea, where the Teatro Antico offers views that might make you forget there's a performance scheduled. Corso Umberto buzzes with cafes where locals debate which gelateria truly deserves your euros. Take the aerial tramway down to Isola Bella, a tiny island nature reserve where the pebbled beach demands proper footwear but rewards with crystalline waters. The Piazza IX April serves as an open-air living room where everyone gathers at sunset. After climbing narrow medieval streets, reward yourself with pasta alla Norma and cannoli that make a compelling argument against ever leaving Sicily. The San Giorgio Theatre hosts performances in a setting so intimate you'll feel part of the production.
