From midnight blue to turquoise The shades of ‘Sicilian Blue’, seen along Sicily's coastline, in the island's dramatic, more remote interior, within quiet cloisters and cathedrals, in the patterns of terracotta tiles, in village streets, church domes and the sweeping horizon, come in tones of azure, light sky, steel blue, teal, midnight blue, sky blue, turquoise, royal blue and more.

Surrounded by Seas Sicily, the largest island in the Mediterranean, is lapped by the clear waters of three blue, inland seas: the Tyrrhenian to the north, the Ionian to the east and the Mediterranean to the south and west.

These seas have been crossed by waves of conquerors since antiquity and, curious travellers.
