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

Granita & brioche

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

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.
