Discover Syracuse from the Sea: A Journey through History and Natural Wonders Let us take you on an unforgettable adventure through the crystal clear waters that embrace Syracuse, jewel of eastern Sicily. Our 60-minute boat tour will take you on a journey where ancient history and natural beauty come together in a unique experience. Departing from the majestic Porto Grande, your journey begins with the sea breeze caressing your face as our experienced skipper guides you through centuries of history. We will sail to the picturesque Little Harbor, where you can admire the mighty Maniace Castle standing proudly over the sea. This ancient fortress, silent witness to battles and conquests, will appear to you in all its magnificence from a privileged perspective that only the sea can offer. The route continues to the legendary Arethusa Spring, a freshwater spring shrouded in ancient Greek myths. Your guide will tell you the story of the nymph Arethusa and the river Alphaeus, as the waters of the spring mingle with the deep blue of the Mediterranean in a spectacle of colors that will catch your eye. But the real surprises await you in the three sea caves hidden along the coast. As you enter these natural sanctuaries, you will be enchanted by the play of light that stalactites, stalagmites and coral formations create on the turquoise waters. Here, nature has worked for millennia to create a breathtaking kaleidoscope of colors and shapes. And if the summer heat sets in, you'll have the opportunity to soak in the refreshing natural pools of crystal clear water for a moment of pure relaxation. The last part of the tour will take you along the entire coast of the island, skirting the picturesque waterfront of Syracuse. From here, you will be able to admire in a single glance the beauty of ancient Ortigia, with its Baroque palaces reflected in the waters of the sea.
