Leisurely Messina

Messina, Italy
Activity Level
low
Duration
4:00 Hours
Your journey takes you to the north of the island to the resort of Capo Peloro, just 3km from the Italian mainland. Travel through the charming fishing villages of Ganzirri and Faro and past the small salt-water lakes used for growing mussels. Make sure you try Sicilan specialities – a tongue-tingling, ice-cold granita served with a sweet brioche or an espresso with cannoli pastries – and absorb the unforgettable view across the town towards the Straits of Messina. Visit the Cathedral, built in 1200, and view its incredible astronomical clock – the biggest in the world – before exploring the serene and decorative interior.
