Sicily is one of the finest destinations for those looking to celebrate their honeymoon in the most romantic and luxurious of settings. The area boasts a stunning coastline as well as fantastic restaurants, quaint boutique shops and some stylish, upmarket hotels. You certainly won’t be disappointed with the level of indulgence on this holiday! Here are a few things you could be getting up to with your true love.
Helicopter Heaven
A great way to begin your Sicily honeymoon is to take a helicopter flight over Mount Etna and towards the Aeolian Islands, where you’ll be able to enjoy the breath-taking bird’s eye view of Stromboli, a world-famous volcanic island. This is perfect for the newlyweds who love adventure and nature and who are keen to see as much of Sicily as possible.
The Opera
Palermo is home to the Teatro Massimo, which is one of Europe’s best-loved and most iconic theatres. There are few more romantic nights than the Italian opera enjoyed in all its glory from your very own private box. After the show, you must of course head to a classic Italian restaurant to indulge in some post-show supper. This will certainly be a night to remember.
A Cruise at Sunset
What better way to celebrate your marriage than to take a romantic cruise along the breathtaking coastline? This is sure to be a highlight of your Sicily honeymoon, and will give you the chance to see the Egadi and Aeolian islands up close and to take in all of their natural beauty. Pop open a bottle of champagne as the sun begins to set and don’t forget to bring your swimming gear if you fancy taking a dip in the clear waters.
Your Sicily Honeymoon Dinner
This holiday would of course not be complete without that traditional candle-lit dinner at one of the region’s most highly regarded eateries. Relax during the day by the pool or head out on a pleasant walk through one of the inviting Old Town centres before returning to your hotel or a nearby restaurant to discover your table waiting for you, complete with a celebratory bottle of champagne on ice.
The Volcano at Sunrise
You’ve seen Sicily at sunset, now it’s time to see the region in all its glorious early morning beauty. The early alarm call will be worth it once you arrive at Mount Etna to witness the awe-inspiring Sicilian sunrise, an experience which is always best shared with your loved one. Why not take your breakfast up with you?
A Sicily honeymoon will make for a truly unforgettable experience with all of the area’s stunning natural beauty, delicious food and romantic spots promising to thrill you and your loved one. Enjoy a cruise at sunset along the breathtaking coastline, wake up early to enjoy the sunrise from Mount Etna or head up in a helicopter to admire the views from above. This is without a doubt one of the world’s most romantic destinations.
