Full description
If I say Sicily you immediately think of cannoli? It's time to change your perspective!
A boat trip to Castellammare del Golfo to discover the Zingaro Nature Reserve and Scopello awaits you. Four and a half hours spent photographing the Faraglioni, diving into the water and contemplating wonderful views.
So, are you with us?
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Castellammare del Golfo (TP) . Awaiting us will be the skipper who will accompany us on this boat excursion to discover the coast between Scopello and the Zingaro Nature Reserve.
After settling on board, we will set sail along one of the most fascinating stretches of the Sicilian coastline. We will sail along spectacular inlets such as Testa della Porta, Fossa dello Stinco and the Grotta della Vucciria, admiring from the sea cliffs, natural caves and coves that can only be reached by water.
The first swim stop of about 30 minutes will be at the Grotta della Madonnina, inside Cala Bianca. Here we will have time to swim and snorkel in clear waters, observing the rocky seabed, small fish and the play of light created by the sun on the crystal clear sea.
We will then continue sailing towards Cala Rossa, Guidaloca and the Grotta delle Colombe, until we reach the famous Faraglioni of Scopello. In front of the ancient Tonnara (tuna fishery) we will take a second 30-minute swim, surrounded by one of the most photographed views in western Sicily.
The tour will continue in the Zingaro Nature Reserve, where we will reach Cala dell'Uzzo for a final swim stop of approximately 30 minutes. Between one dive and the next we can relax on board enjoying fresh fruit, drinks and cold coffee accompanied by the sea breeze and music on the boat.
After the last stop, we will return to the starting point. The experience will last a total of four and a half hours.
