Boat Trip along Ortigia with Apéritif

Embark on a tour to discover the historic island of Ortigia, passing by its most important monuments. With our boat trip along Ortigia, you can spend a quiet hour on board of our boat together with your family and friends. Our staff will accompany you on this tour, and you can also enjoy an apéritif of typical local products.

On board of our boat, we will circumnavigate the city, allowing you to enjoy the incredible view of the Duomo and the church of Santa Lucia, two architectural masterpieces. You will take numerous photographs of the historic Venetian Palace, as well as of the Umberto I Bridge, which has connected Ortigia to the mainland since the second half of the 19th century. The characteristic little harbour and the arcane former Bourbon prison will also not be missing from our itinerary. Continuing on, you will see the Spanish walls and the magnificent Levante promenade ahead of you, as we approach the Vigliena Fortress and the famous Maniace Castle, one of the symbols of Syracuse.

The Fountain of Arethusa, the Promenade Alphaeus and the Porta Marina will be the next points of interest you will admire, before heading to the area's impressive sea caves. These magnificent rock formations enclose crystal-clear waters where you can swim and take a dip during a break. Observing the coral formations, stalactites and stalagmites inside will be an experience you will not easily forget! At the end of our intense adventure, we will take you back to the starting point.
