Are you planning a trip to Sicily but aren't sure where to start? Visit our guide on the Major Cities of Sicily: sicilyreview.com/major-cities-of-sicily

The major cities of Sicily start with the island region's capital of Palermo which has a population of around 640,000. There are nine provinces of Sicily, each one named after the major city within it.

Catania is the second city of Sicily and capital of the eponymous province. Its population of just under 300,000 puts it ahead of Messina which faces Calabria across the narrow Messina Strait.

In terms of tourism, the city of Syracuse is the equal of anything in Sicily while Ragusa and Trapani also offer their own charms. Enna, Agrigento and Caltanissetta are the remaining provincial capitals.

While the likes of Taormina and Isola Bella are among the most popular coastal locations in Sicily, you can also find beautiful seaside locations in most of the major cities such as Palermo, Catania, Trapani and Syracuse which is pictured here.

Syracuse is an Ancient Greek city spread across several areas of interest with its collection of Greek and Roman archaeological monuments just outside the city centre but also a beautiful island called Ortigia which attracts most visitors.

​Ortigia is famous for its elegant Baroque architecture and the turquoise waters that surround the tiny island.
