The rendezvous is at 9.30 am at the Port of Santa Maria Maggiore in Milazzo (ME). You will be welcomed by the skipper and, after settling into theboat, you will set off on your tour.
You will sail along the coastline admiring the promontory of Capo Milazzo as far as Punta dell'Asino, where you will make your first 45-minute swim stop in front of the beautiful black sand beach.
The excursion will continue toVulcano Island. The wildest part of its territory will leave you breathless and enchant you with its colours and unspoilt nature. You will see the lighthouse and the black Gelso beach, formed of sand and gravel.
You will then stop at the Grotta del Cavallo (Horse Cave), named after a rock located at one end of the cavity that resembles the head of the animal of the same name, and at the Piscina di Venere (Venus Pool), where you can take another pleasant dip in the sea.
Arriving at the island's harbour at around 12 noon, you can visit the Vulcano village and, if you wish, you can also have a quick meal (not included) in one of the many restaurants in the harbour area; alternatively, you can bring food and drinks from home on board. After about an hour and a half, you will re-board to reach theisland of Lipari, where another swimming stop is planned near the Pumice Quarries and the White Beaches.
Around 15.00 you will stop at the fishermen's port of Marina Corta for a visit to the town and, after about an hour and a half, you will resume navigation back to Milazzo. The excursion lasts a total of 8 hours.
