We came for Etna. We stayed for a balcony on Corso Umberto and a bakery that opened at 6.

Almond granita, a warm brioche, and the realisation that this is a perfectly acceptable breakfast.

The main street at golden hour
Bougainvillea, balconies, a hundred conversations in three languages.

Experience
Wading to the island
At low tide a sandbar connects the beach to the island. We walked across holding our shoes.
We cancelled two day trips. No regrets.
