Full description
If the sea is your passion, don't miss our excursion to Isola Bella and Taormina!
As the sun sets, you will admire the coast's main attractions and take a refreshing swim in irresistible waters. You will enjoy sailing on board a comfortable catamaran, which was chosen as the boat for Disney's animated film 'The Little Mermaid'.
You'll also go in search of dolphins, toasting in company at every sighting!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Giardini Naxos (ME). Upon arrival we will meet the skipper, who will seat us on board. Once we have finished boarding all the passengers, we will set sail.
Our first stop will be the Bay of Giardini Naxos, followed by the enchanting Grotta dell'amore. Immediately afterwards we will go to Capo Taormina andIsola Bella, a marine park with clear blue waters.
We will also be able to admire the Grotta Azzurra, so called because of the intense colour taken on by the sea, as well as the Bay of Mazzarò, characterised by a pebble beach, and the Bay of Spisone.
We will have a bathing break of about 30 minutes and once back on the catamaran we will be offered a toast (included) of fresh seasonal fruit accompanied by an alcoholic or non-alcoholic drink; if you prefer to enrich the experience with anaperitif, you can select theaperitif option when booking. At the end of the break, we will set sail in search of dolphins: their sighting will fill us with excitement!
