Discover Sicily with Eurocamp

If you're eager to experience a holiday with a difference next summer, it's time to explore Eurocamp's brand new destination for 2008; the Italian island of Sicily. As the biggest of the Mediterranean islands, Sicily's spirit is larger than life and offers something special for every holidaymaker.

Experience its wonder from Eurocamp's El Bahira parc, perfect for families to discover the history and culture within Sicily's sandy coastlines.

Eurocamp recommends the capital Palermo as a must-see. Close to El Bahira, the charming city is an exciting hub of Sicilian tradition; ideal for soaking up the Sicilian way of life.

Visit the Vucciria market and catch one of the many plays acted out by the marionettes - a local tradition not to be missed. Spend time admiring the 'gangster-chic' fashions that encompass Sicilian style and pick up some traditional terracotta ceramic art.

After a long day seeing the sights, retreat back to the picturesque El Bahira parc, surrounded by dwarf pine trees and boasting its own private beach. Located on the northern coast, the parc offers a children's playground, family-fun activities and a large swimming pool filled with clear blue water from the Mediterranean.

Experience deep sea diving at San Vito Lo Capo, a short distance from the parc, take a trip to the famous Mount Etna or marvel at the historic temples and amphitheatres left by the Greeks, Arabs and Romans.

During your break, enjoy sampling the traditional food and drink and join the Sicilians to cheer "buon appetito!" Try the local pizza Sfincione and Seppia; cuttlefish served in its own black sauce with pasta. Why not take a wine tasting course at one of the many vineyards, see the ancient olives groves or visit the orange and lemon orchards to get a real taste of the island.

Direct flights are available from London Heathrow to Palermo airport with AIitalia, and low cost airlines Easyjet and Ryanair regularly fly to Palermo from London Stanstead.
