Full description
Have you ever wanted to feel like the captain of an expedition to discover hidden treasures? If the answer is yes, get ready: you don't need to have sailed the seven seas to take the helm (or even a licence! ).
In Syracuse, you can drive a high-performance 5. 8-metre Colbac dinghy and turn your holiday into an adventure worthy of a film, among sea caves and turquoise waters. With a 40 hp engine and room for up to 5 people, you can enjoy the Sicilian sun on the comfortable cushions or relax in the shade of the awning.
Get ready to set sail!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Syracuse (SR) . On your arrival, the staff will welcome you for the paperwork and the signing of the contract.
The skipper will hand you over the Colbac 580 dinghy, explaining everything you need to know about its handling and the rules for safe navigation. Before you set sail, you will take a sea trial to familiarise yourself with the controls and receive detailed nautical maps.
The dinghy is 5. 8 metres long and is equipped with every comfort: large bow and stern sundeck, swim ladder, stereo system and awning. Since the engine is 40 hp, you can drive it independently without a licence, enjoying the pleasure of sailing in total freedom.
You will be advised on the best itineraries to make the most of your time: don't miss the magic of the island of Ortigia seen from the sea, the scenic Scoglio dei Due Frati or the unspoilt wonders of the Plemmirio Marine Protected Area.
After 4 hours or 9 hours of rental (your choice at the time of booking) you will return the dinghy to the starting point.
Who it is aimed at
This activity is open to everyone. You do not need a licence to drive the dinghy, but a minimum age of 18 is required.
The boat is not wheelchair accessible.
