Italian Islands
Sicily is Italy's most underrated island: Greek temples at Agrigento, Etna summit hikes, and street-food markets in Palermo. Sardinia has cleaner beaches than anywhere on the mainland and the nuraghe prehistoric towers of its interior. Capri, Ischia, and Procida in the Bay of Naples work as overnight escapes from Naples or as standalone long weekends. Each guide covers ferry connections, when to go, and where to stay.
