The Mediterranean island of Sicily, with its great climate and superb rock makes an excellent sport climbing holiday destination. It has something of the character of Kalymnos with easily accessible cliffs many with a beautiful westerly aspect. There are steep tufa-caves, expansive vast walls and shorter single pitch cliffs mostly in easy reach of delightful holiday accommodation. The climate is just what you would expect for winter sun in the Mediterranean.
