Boat Trip to Ortigia and the Sea Caves

Our boat trip to Ortigia and the Sea Caves is the perfect opportunity to explore this fascinating island. Nature, architecture and fun will be the main ingredients of your unforgettable experience. We will start from Umbertino Bridge, considered one of the most beautiful bridges in Italy. The first stop of our trip will be the Small Port of Syracuse, before heading towards three natural sea caves, including a very characteristic heart-shaped one. We will then continue to the Levante promenade of the island of Ortigia, from where you can admire the Castello Maniace, an imposing fortress that soars solemnly in the heart of ancient Syracuse. Our excursion will continue, and there will be more attractions, such as the Arethusa Spring: a freshwater spring framed by Syracusan architecture that meets the Ionian Sea. Before returning to the Umbertino Bridge, you will have the chance to dive into the crystal-clear waters of the Porto Grande for a 15-minute swim.
