Full description
If you think the best of Sicily is 'above' sea level, prepare to change your mind with our snorkelling tour to the Zingaro Nature Reserve!
Aboard a comfortable 8-metre dinghy, you will sail along the coast between Castellammare del Golfo and the Tonnara di Scopello. You will have the chance to spot groupers, octopuses and starfish, learning to recognise them thanks to an original marine passport.
We look forward to seeing you on board!
What we will do
We will meet at the indicated time at the meeting point in Castellammare del Golfo (TP) . Awaiting us will be the nature guide who will accompany us on this aquatic excursion aboard an 8-metre dinghy equipped with awning, shower and all the necessary safety devices.
Once we set sail, we will reach the Zingaro Nature Reserve for our first stop of about 30 minutes. Here we will be given the equipment (fins, mask and snorkel) and begin guided snorkelling. We will also receive a special booklet on which we can place a stamp for each species observed, such as moray eels or bream, deepening our knowledge through dedicated QR codes.
We will continue on to Cala Capreria or another beautiful cove, depending on weather and sea conditions, to enjoy about 30 minutes of free swimming or relaxation. During this break, we will be offered a small refreshment of fresh fruit and local wine, while water will be available for the little ones.
The adventure will continue, touching on other iconic spots such as Cala dell'Uzzo or the Grotta Azzurra, before heading to the majestic Tonnara di Scopello. At each stop, we will be able to admire the rich biodiversity of the seabed, swimming in total safety.
Finally, we will reverse course to return to the port of departure, taking advantage of the sea breeze during the coastal navigation. The experience will last a total of 4 hours.
