What we will do

I will be waiting for you at the time agreed at the time of booking at the port of Syracuse. On your arrival I will give you the dinghy that will accompany you on your adventure at sea. Before I let you leave the port I will give you all the explanations you need to drive safely and I will also give you a map representing the most beautiful areas and beaches to reach.

Then you can start sailing on board the 5.40-metre-long Highfield Patrol 540 dinghy with a 40-hp Honda engine, equipped with sun cushions, a ladder, a sun canopy, and a steering console. You and your group can relax on board and enjoy the sea breeze as the dinghy ploughs through the waves.

Past theisland of Ortigia, you will sail through thePlemmirio Marine Protected Area and reach the beautiful beaches of Arenella, Ognina and Fontane Bianche. You will reach beaches and coves, one more beautiful than the other, where you can take a dip and don your snorkelling mask.

Depending on what you choose when booking, you can keep the dinghy with you for 4 hours ('Half Day') or 8 hours ('Full Day').
