Italy · Ships call at Messina, Sicily
Warm and mostly dry

This is one of the most popular months to visit Messina, so book shore excursions early. The top snorkeling spots and tours sell out fast. Lightweight layers work well: a light cardigan for evenings on deck and breathable tops for port days cover most conditions.
