Messina

The closest city to the mainland, Messina is a bustling hub with some lovely architecture and seaside charm, but also a few great day trips that get you out of town. The Gole dell’Alcantara is a natural wonder – a 14km-long canyon in the south of Messina province and you can head over to Isola di Vulcano or Lipari, to get a feel for the relaxed pace of Italian island life.
