Unexpectedly in Sicily I took a boat trip. I am not a boat trip person but had a great time and saw fabulous views looking inland. The day was grey, the sea not exactly calm but Carmelo, our 5th generation Sicilian 'captain' was very reassuring and an absolute fount of local knowledge. I saw huge hotels and homes for the rich and famous with infinity swimming pools perched on rocky outcrops. I saw the mansion that President Putin wants to rent in May and I saw the skinny pebbly strips of 'beach' where literally thousands of sunseekers lie on sun lounges in serried ranks in high season. No question Sicily is beautiful from all angles !!
