Full description
Snow by the sea? ! No, it's just the effect of Sicily's most famous white marl glistening in the sun.
Make yourself comfortable because on this boat excursion you will set sail from Sciacca for a half-day trip to one of the world's most iconic natural monuments: the Scala dei Turchi!
Together with an experienced skipper, you will plough through the waves of the Agrigento coastline for 4 hours of pure wonder. Between refreshing dives, snorkelling sessions and a delicious aperitif served on board, you'll experience the Sicilian sea from the most privileged and exclusive perspective ever.
What we will do
The appointment is at the indicated time at the meeting point in Sciacca (AG) . Awaiting us will be the skipper who will accompany us on our boat excursion, ready to discover the secrets of the southern coast of Sicily.
Once we have left our moorings, we will begin a panoramic navigation that will allow us to admire the variety of the Sicilian coastline. On the way, we will pass long golden beaches and limestone cliffs, until we see the dazzling profile of the Scala dei Turchi silhouetted on the horizon. We will be enchanted by its stepped shape, shaped by wind and sea over the millennia.
Having dropped anchor at the foot of this imposing white cliff, we will have plenty of time for an extended swim. We can dive into the turquoise waters that contrast with the whiteness of the rock and use the included snorkelling equipment to explore the surrounding seabed, rich in marine life.
While we enjoy relaxing after our swim, the skipper will prepare an inviting aperitif. We will toast to the day with a glass of chilled prosecco, accompanied by a selection of appetisers and savoury snacks, lulled by the gentle rocking of the boat in a unique setting.
Finally, we will sail back to the port of Sciacca, enjoying the last rays of sunshine and the sea breeze on our faces. The activity will last about 4 hours in total.
