Easy hike along the coast of the Wildlife Sanctuary of Vendicari. The shallow lakes are popular stop over for migration birds even though the pink flamingos in recent years have stayed all year long. So you can be quite sure to spot them during the winter months.
The Nature reserve also includes a "Tonnara", the ruins of a former tuna factory. One of the most important income sources in the past.
Along the hike you also pass by some beautiful beaches. The sea stays warm until late December, then it cools down. But even during the coldest months the water temperature never drops below 15°C. So you may dare a quick dip into the water...

When all Europe is still covered in snow and ice, in Sicily it is already spring. Now is the time to harvest the last oranges.
During the winter months we get to do the best part of our job: scouting - we check out new routes, visit new hotels.

Winter is low season, so everything is much calmer. People have time for a chat.
We can take it much easier than during the hectic high season months. And just stop, watch the sheep and have a look at this fabulous sky!
