Scooter on the highway

My airbnb host gave me some suggestions for beaches near Catania. He did mention that i should make sure my rental scooter is allowed on the highway. I want to drive from Catania to Giardini Naxos beach by scooter. I have both a car and motorbike license.

From what i could gather it must have a minimum of 150cc in order to be on the highway. Is that still true? Is there anything else i need to be wary of when renting?

Im glad to hear any suggestions for rental places!

Solo weekend Catania as a woman

Ciao everyone! I was wondering if Catania is a good idea for a little solo weekend as a woman (friday - sunday eod) somewhere in june.

I was just wondering if its a city where its easy to connect with people. Catania is full of history so i wont be bored at all but i do like to spontaneously meet people (in an Anthony Bourdain way, not a Netflix crime documentary way). Is it a place people mostly keep to themselves?

E.g. in Iceland i met a girl in H&M and we went aurora hunting that night & in Sweden i met a man over dinner and we went looking for moose afterwards to give an idea.

Im from Tunisia myself and am used to cities with some edge to them, this also wont be my first solo trip (also i dont drink nor use drgz if it matters). Everyone says Catania is more raw and edgy i'm having a hard time estimating how much.

Thanks in advance!
