The skipper will tell you some interesting facts about the area and the species of fish that inhabit it. Have fun discovering them all!
What we will do
We will meet at the meeting point in Syracuse, where our skipper will be waiting for us. We will immediately set off on our excursion, sailing along the coast and crossing the magnificent waters that wash it.
The first stop we will reach will be Castello Maniace, which occupies the end of the city's harbour. Near the famous castle we will stop for a swim and snorkelling. Then we will depart in the direction of the caves that characterise the Syracuse coastline and stop again to explore the underwater world they host. The skipper will give us valuable information about the area and the different species of fish that characterise it.
The last stop on our excursion will be the Plemmirio promontory, which gives its name to the marine protected area of the same name. Here too we will stop to admire the beauty of the surrounding nature and take a few photos from vantage points unreachable by land.
Each stop during the experience will last approximately 45 minutes. The activity, including briefing and snorkelling stops, lasts a total of 3 hours.
