Description

Have fun on board our boat with an amazing tour. We'll pick you up at the port of Messina or at an agreed-upon spot. In about 20 minutes, we'll reach the pier where you'll board our boat. We'll explore Sicily's east coast all the way to the easternmost tip, Capo Peloro. Then, in about 15 minutes, we'll cross the Strait of Messina towards Scilla, a charming Calabrian town on the Costa Viola, famous for the fishing village of Chianalea, nicknamed 'the little Venice of the south' because the houses rest directly on the rocks by the sea. The landscape is dominated by the imposing Castello Ruffo, which separates the seaside village from the beach of Marina Grande, offering a breathtaking view of the Strait of Messina. Before docking, you can dive into the crystal clear waters of the bay to swim in the nature reserve, take memorable photos, and go snorkeling (we'll provide the equipment). Next, we'll dock in Scilla, where you'll have two hours to explore the village, taste the local food, and relax on the beach. After the experience, we'll head back to the departure pier and then to the port of Messina or an agreed-upon location.
