Diverting to marina, which is in Sicily (8)
I believe the answer is:
taormina
'which is in sicily' is the definition.
(Taormina is a town in Sicily)
'diverting to marina' is the wordplay.
'diverting' indicates anagramming the letters (letters diverted elsewhere).
'to'+'marina'='tomarina'
'tomarina' with letters rearranged gives 'TAORMINA'.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
