Italy captivates visitors with its rich blend of history, culture and cuisine. From the ancient ruins of Rome to the Renaissance masterpieces of Florence, this boot-shaped country offers endless exploration opportunities. Venice's romantic canals, the fashion-forward streets of Milan, and the stunning Amalfi Coast draw millions of tourists annually. Food enthusiasts can indulge in authentic pizza in Naples or sample world-class wines in Tuscany. The country hosts numerous cultural celebrations throughout the year, including Venice's Carnival in February and Siena's historic Palio horse race held twice each summer. For travellers seeking to expand their Mediterranean adventure, regular ferry services operate from numerous Italian ports, connecting to Greece, Croatia, Spain, and several North African destinations. The busy port of Civitavecchia near Rome serves as a major hub for ferry travel, offering convenient connections to Sardinia, Sicily and beyond.
Ustica Island, a small volcanic island off the coast of Sicily, offers a unique blend of natural beauty and rich history that makes it a fascinating destination for travellers. Known as the 'Black Pearl of the Mediterranean' due to its volcanic origins, Ustica boasts crystal-clear waters that have led to its designation as Italy's first protected marine reserve. Visitors can explore the underwater archaeological trail, discovering ancient Roman shipwrecks and diverse marine life. The island's main village, with its colourful houses and narrow streets, provides a glimpse into traditional Italian island life. History enthusiasts will appreciate the prehistoric village ruins and the Torre Santa Maria, a 16th-century watchtower. During summer months, the island hosts the Ustica Diving Festival, attracting underwater photography enthusiasts from across Europe. Despite its small size, Ustica offers excellent hiking trails with panoramic views across the Tyrrhenian Sea. For those wanting to explore further, regular ferry connections operate between Ustica and Palermo, Sicily's capital, making it an ideal addition to a broader Italian adventure.
