The Zingaro Nature Reserve stretches along the coastline between San Vito Lo Capo and Castellammare del Golfo. It is an area of great natural interest and one of the very few coastal areas in Sicily that is not traversed by a road. To this day, mules are the only means of transportation allowed besides boats.
Starting from San Vito Lo Capo, you encounter numerous coastal beauties, including Cala dell’Uzzo, Cala del Leone, Cala Marinella, the Grotta degli Innamorati, and the Faraglioni of Scopello. Boat tours to the Zingaro Nature Reserve allow you to stop at the best spots to take a dip in the magnificent crystal clear waters.
Other locations that can be reached by boat from San Vito lo Capo are Santa Margherita Bay, Bue Marino Bay, and Monte Cofano Reserve. With a longer tour, you can also reach the Egadi Islands of Favignana, Levanzo, and Marettimo and other tourist destinations in Western Sicily such as Erice, Marsala, or Mazara del Vallo.
A day trip by boat to San Vito Lo Capo and the Zingaro Nature Reserve is priced at 60€ per person. The same tour in private form costs €600 and includes the rental of a boat for exclusive use with a driver for a group of up to 12 people.
A boat tour in San Vito Lo Capo can be a great idea to make your own vacation in Sicily special, or to give someone the opportunity to visit the island’s most beautiful nature reserve. A boat ride will be a very welcome gift for any occasion, whether it is birthdays, graduations, anniversaries or other celebrations. A day at sea is among the experiences you won’t forget!

21 Oct 2023 | Dinghy day tour in the Zingaro Nature Reserve with lunch and aperitif
My husband and I had the pleasure of spending a day with skipper Rino and 2 other very pleasant people on his brand new dinghy full of options and comfort on 30/9. We set off from San Vito lo Capo and then headed for the Zingaro reserve, Scopello and Castellammare tuna fisheries, passing through all the wonderful coves. The landscape left us open-mouthed, and the company crowned this day as the best ever. All topped off with excellent wine, grapes, and local specialities such as pane cunzato, bread and panelle, and sfincione, all offered by the legendary Rino. Various bathing stops with the availability of masks and floats. On the return trip, an aperitif with wine and chips with a breathtaking view of San Vito lo Capo. An unforgettable day and contact saved in the address book for the next holiday!

I would like to thank the entire organisation for this wonderful experience I had today. It was a very interesting tour, relaxing but also full of unforgettable moments! Starting with the swim in clean, clear water: the staff provided fins, masks and tubes to facilitate our exploration. Pr move on to the aperitif offered to us at the end of the morning: grapes, local products, wine, water... all very good! In addition, sunny music and the right company made this a truly unique experience! I thank Silvia for giving us the opportunity of a panoramic view throughout the whole trip! Thank you very much for everything! Highly recommended!!!!

Beautiful experience by boat . They make you visit the entire gypsy reserve by sea, with the captain Michele super nice and helpful person who explains all the history and useful information of each cove. Super helpful person and very good aperitif with local bread tomato mozzarella as well as wine water and juice . Boat available with floats for those who can't stay too long in the deep water and masks and tubes for the more adventurous . Unfortunately, for timing reasons, it doesn't let you swim in all the coves but only the most beautiful ones, but the experience is definitely worth it if you stay overnight in those areas.

Fabulous experience, our commander Michele made us live a joyful and relaxing experience. The various coves where we stopped are nothing short of fabulous, the aperitif of cunzato bread and white wine was suuper good!nFor those who are not very practical in deep water but cmq knows how to swim (but also those who do not), supplied with tools to stay afloat and relax in addition to masks to see the beautiful backdrops of the various creeks. Experience that I will definitely do again and I recommend it to everyone both young and old. Thank you very much to the commander and keep it up. Alessandro from Milan

The best excursion of the holiday! We did the dinghy excursion from San Vito lo Capo to Castellammare del golfo via the gypsy reserve and various coves. It was a wonderful experience; Rino was very good at explaining to us what we were seeing, took us to the most beautiful places for swimming and snorkelling (by the way, thank you for your encouragement and support!!!) and was also great company; we had a great time. She offered us a great and plentiful snack, provided us with masks and float tubes but most of all she gave us a great day out. Highly recommended experience!!!

Fantastic boat trip, it was what we were looking for. We spent 4 hours and more along the coast of the gypsy reserve to Scopello, Enza warmly accompanied us on this trip, showing us the beauty of what we were seeing. We were also offered 2 typical sweet and savoury snacks accompanied by liqueur and wine. Recommended if you want to have a slightly more intimate trip and not crammed into some ship with 50 people.
