Where should you go in Sicily in january when it comes to the weather?
Remember:
The climate in Sicily in january ranges from tolerable to very bad depending on the region and city.
That month is not the best month to spend holidays in Sicily. The weather in Favignana (Aegadian Islands), Mazara del Vallo, Marsala, Syracuse, Catane, Augusta, Pozzallo, Messina, Pantelleria, Lipari (Aeolian Islands), Pachino, Agrigento, Capo d'Orlando, Avola, Bagheria, Porto Empedocle, Trapani, Taormina, Sciacca, Castellammare del Golfo and Palermo is quite correct. The sun is not there all the time and you might make you wet by rain frequently. Nonetheless, if you don't plan a pool and sun trip but rather sightseeing, this climate may be good enough for you. In addition, there are definitely fewer tourists this month.
But it gets worse: in Caltanissetta and Canicattì and surrounding areas where the climate is even worse. It is not recommended to go to these areas this month.
