Description

Start your journey as you depart from the embarkation point at the entrance to the island of Ortigia. Once you arrive you will be greeted by the hospitable local partner. Board your boat and feel free to move around during the tour. Opt for a warm place in the sun or take advantage of the shade provided by the awning. Whilst on board you will always find fresh water and safety systems for all participants. Be the one to choose what kind of experience you have as your captain explains the history of the places you will visit. Enjoy the trip by listening to music and letting the scenery do the talking. Admire the island of Ortigia in its entirety as you get the opportunity to see the Maniace Castle, the Arethusa spring, and the city from the sea. Along the Syracuse coast you can have fun unearthing the hidden shapes behind the most famous rocks, go inside sea caves, and observe the color variations within them. Visit the marine protected area of Plemmirio and experience the unspoiled open sea full of picturesque coves including the most famous, the Pillirina. Stop for a swim and snorkel and marvel at the abundance of colorful fish.
