Full description
If between sea and mountains you prefer the former, this tour is for you. If between sunrise and sunset you prefer the latter, this tour is for you. We don't ask if you love Sicily, because only positive answers are allowed.
Set sail for two hours to discover the Taormina coastline under the light of sunset; we await you on board our motor boat with a glass of local wine (and more). An aperitif with a view of the city, Mount Etna or dolphins: whatever the view, the exclamation will always be 'Sicilia bedda'!
What we will do
I will be waiting for you 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting place in Taormina, on board my motor boat ready to welcome you.
Once you have finished boarding, we will set sail along the Taormina coastline to discover beaches and caves, guided by the captain's stories and advice. There will be short stops during the navigation to enjoy swimming and snorkelling in this beautiful natural setting, thanks to the equipment provided on board.
At sunset, an aperitif (included) will be served for a taste of Sicily: assorted fruit and local wine, as well as prosecco, beer and soft drinks. We will toast with our shipmates as the sunset lights up the horizon: before us Mount Etna or the city of Taormina, depending on the panorama that the weather and sea conditions will give us that day. And if we are lucky, we might enjoy the show in the company of dolphins!
At the end of the excursion we will return to the meeting point; the duration is 2 hours.

The excursion is suitable for everyone without age limit.
The boat is not wheelchair accessible.
