"The enchanting island of Sicily is steeped in history, with a breathtaking landscape that begs to be explored. To immerse yourself in the island’s past, head to the southwest coastal town of Selinunte, one of the best ancient archaeological sites in the Mediterranean, perched high above the sea and skirted by lovely golden beaches. Also, be sure to spend an evening at the summit of the famous Stromboli, an active volcano that treats visitors to a daily magma fireworks show at sunset."
