Roman mosaics and a quaint medieval fishing town
... Relatively no tourists, we witnessed the town going about daily life. As the name suggests the town is dominated by a large castle built in the 1300s.

Today it's free for a Sicilian festival date (though when we bought our combined ticket yesterday, no-one told us!). The Greek vase collection is particularly impressive, illustrated with images of gods, satyrs, soldiers and athletes.
One image of a kneeling Perseus beside Andromeda is sublime.
