Sailing Boat Excursions<\/b> departing from the Tourist Port of Catania for 6 hours<\/b> (full day) and lunch on the boat<\/u><\/b>.<\/p>\n

We will set sail with a view of Mount Etna, heading to discover and visit the renowned ‘Riviera dei Ciclopi’<\/a> and the Acitrezza<\/b> marine reserve<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Our first stop and sea bath of the day is at the Caves of Ulysses<\/b>. These caves formed under a beautiful lava cliff overlooking the sea and are characterised by the wonderful colours of the seabed from blue to green to blue. The Caves of Ulysses<\/b> also lend themselves to snorkelling<\/b> and diving, provided you bring your own equipment on board.<\/p>\n

We will then continue our sailing trip with a stop near the Norman Castle<\/b> of Aci Castello<\/b> where we will be offered the opportunity to take a swim in the sea, and for lovers of the genre, also snorkelling<\/b>, <\/b>all this <\/b>with a spectacular view of the castle on the promontory. There will be an opportunity to take a closer look at the characteristic ‘pillows of lava’<\/a> (columnar basalts<\/i> in the jargon) discernible under the castle, formed as a result of the rapid cooling of lava in submarine eruptions that came into contact with seawater.<\/p>\n

Our full-day sailing excursion programme<\/b> takes us on to Aci Trezza<\/b> (a hamlet of Aci Castello), where we will be greeted by the striking Faraglioni rocks and have the opportunity to disembark from our sailing boat for a short excursion<\/b> to the characteristic fishing village<\/b>. Those who wish can hire a pedalo to visit the heart of the Isole dei Ciclopi Marine Reserve.<\/p>\n

On your return to the sailing boat, to refresh you, we will serve you a tasty lunch<\/u> of pasta, fresh fruit, wine and water.<\/b> You will enjoy the pleasant sensations of a meal on board.<\/p>\n

During the return voyage<\/b>, weather-marine conditions permitting, there will be the opportunity for one last offshore swim.<\/p>\n

Our sailing excursions end with the return to disembark at the Tourist Port of Catania at around 16.00.<\/p>\n
