Local context
What to expect in October
🎯 Ideal beach temperature (24°C) — crowds still moderate Autumn in Catania is often underrated: 24°C, golden light and declining crowds. An interesting window. Expect rain on 26% of days — a light raincoat in the bag is recommended. A good balance between weather and crowds, even if June (9.5/10) remains theoretically better.
