When is the best time to travel to Sicily and Italy?

Question

I want to take a trip to Sicily and Italy in the next two years sometime. I was curious to know when the best time is.

Answer 1

Between October and May is fantastic. June through September it's very hot. My husband is in Italy right now and it's 95 degrees with high humidity and many places do not have air conditioning. I have been to Sicily a dozen times and I really think October November is gorgeous. It's about 70-80 during the day (dont pay attention to what the weather almanacs say the average temperature is for that time of year, it's way off). Sunny, mild and gorgeous. You can still swim in October in the sea, towards November it starts getting a little cool. I love Sicily, great choice! You'll surely enjoy it.
