Things to Do in Catania

Holidays to Catania are delightful at any time of year thanks to the mild climate, but beach-goers will prefer spring and fall. If you sense that something's fishy here, relax—it's only the market, where fresh seafood comes in daily off small fishing boats. Pay it a visit to catch the full Sicilian energy of this city in action. For a quieter afternoon, sit for a spell in the baroque Piazza Duomo or take a walk down winding old streets to get lost in the local culture. Looking for a more explosive adventure? Hike Mount Etna, or at least take a vineyard tour to taste wines that are famous because of the volcanic terroir here. Hotels in Catania make any of this possible—the only hard part is choosing which adventures you'll take.

Getting To & Around Catania

You can get here from Naples by ferry or from Rome by air. Before landing at Fontanarossa Airport (CTA), lounge about in hotels in Rome for a few days to get your trip to Italy started off right. In Catania, you can get around the city centre on foot or by taxi; to explore the coastline and beyond, look into Wotif’s awesome car hire deals and feel the breeze in your hair.
