Full description
Depart from the port of Palermo and join a 3½-hour sailing tour.
You will visit theGulf of Palermo, bathed in the warm colours of the sunset. Depending on the weather and sea conditions, you will visit either the western or the eastern coastline, in each case participating in a unique experience to discover Palermo's coastline.
You can dive into the water and snorkel and, before returning to the port, enjoy a typical Sicilianaperitif on board. So, are you ready to set sail?
What we will do
We will meet 15 minutes before departure at the indicated meeting point in Palermo. Here we will be welcomed by the staff, who will take us to the Dufour 425 sailing boat, about 3 minutes' walk away.
We will then set sail from the port at 18:00 and, depending on the weather and sea conditions, choose the route to follow.
The first option is to head towards Mongerbino, on the Levante coast. Here we will be able to see the sun set behind the city, colouring the sky with warm red and orange hues. The second will take us to Mondello, on the west coast.
In both cases, there will be a stop to dive into the water and snorkel. Afterwards, an aperitif of typical Sicilian products and locally produced white wine will be served on board.
Return is scheduled for around 9 pm. The total duration of the activity is 3½ hours.
Who it is aimed at
The excursion is for everyone over the age of 18. It is not recommended for pregnant women or persons with reduced mobility.
