Sicily's weather runs to hot, dry summers and mild, wetter winters, with June through September drawing the largest crowds. Italian island cooking leans on seafood, handmade pasta, olive oil and local wines, so a meal here fits the island's broader food traditions. Planes, ferries and hydrofoils connect Sicily with the Italian mainland, and Italian is the everyday language across the island. Portopalo di Capo Passero sits at the island's southern edge, a natural stop for anyone touring the south-eastern coast.
