Description
Departure from Avola, heading south, with a first stop at the White Rocks of Lido di Noto; you will enter the Vendicari Nature Reserve crossing the magnificent areas of Eloro and Marianelli, and then stopping for a swim in front of the Calamosche beach; the tour will continue in the heart of the reserve to admire the beautiful remains of the Vendicari tuna fishery with, immediately afterwards, a stop at the white beach behind the island of Vendicari.
You can then observe from the RIB the 4 Roman columns dating back to the second century AD, which are located about 5 meters deep near Marzamemi. Sicily Boats provides all participants with snorkeling equipment, such as fins, masks and snorkels. The navigation continues towards the island of Capopassero where it will be possible to admire the Tafuri castle and visit the octopus cave under the Spanish fortress. We will then make a stop to enjoy an aperitif with Sicilian sparkling wine, arancini with meat sauce, fresh fruit, beer and non-alcoholic drinks.
We will then move to Marzamemi for a stop on land of about 30 minutes to visit the ancient sailors' village and, at your leisure, taste one of the many local culinary specialties.
Depending on the weather and sea conditions, we will decide whether to make the last stop above the volcanic source of Calabernardo or in front of the Cicirata beach, just before returning to the port.
The average total navigation time is approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, therefore all the rest of the time is dedicated to swimming stops and visiting Marzamemi.
