Italy in late September (1 Viewer)

[Suffolkringer]

Hello everyone

I am hoping to go on holiday in Italy in late September. It would be good to do some birding but also a general holiday.

Can anyone please recommend any good birding spots in late September, and also any good place for accommodation? little villas for 2 people.

Hope you can help
Jon

Hi Jon,

Italy is long about 1800km, so a little bit of more info is kindly welcome

Have you got an idea of what do you want see in Italy?

We went to Trapani on Sicily the autumn before last and it was most enjoyable. Saltpans with a good variety of birds on the edge of town, a cable car up to the walled city of Erice, reasonably easy to get to Palermo etc. I think Ryanair still fly there from the UK.

Thanks Stephen

Thats the sort of info I am after...I know Italy is a big county but there must be better places to visit in autumn. I am after peoples experiences.

I was edging towards Sciily anyway as I fancied an island. Do you have any accommodation tips please?

All the best

Hi Jon,

Re accommodation not really as we stayed in a flat for four people we found on the internet.

If you like islands another plus of Trapani you could day trip one of the three islands off there. I will look up what they are called, we went to Favignana.
