Details
Set off with us on a tour to discover some of the most beautiful places on the south coast of Sicily. With this boat trip from Avola to Marzamemi you will navigate on board one of our boats, in the company of a professional skipper. We will pass fascinating places that can only be reached by sea, and you will be able to observe the rich seabed of the area during stops for swimming and snorkeling.
We will meet in Avola, where our skipper will welcome you on board the boat, and start navigating south. The first point of interest we will encounter is the Spiaggia di Eloro and Spiaggia naturista di Marianelli. We will move on until we reach Spiaggia di Calamosche, where we will have our first swimming stop. The trip will continue to the Riserva Naturale di Vendicari (Vendicari Nature Reserve), a protected natural area that includes long unspoilt beaches with fine white sand. Here you will have the opportunity to explore the Vendicari seabed, swimming in its crystal-clear waters and snorkeling with the equipment our staff will provide you with.
Still via sea, our boat will go as far as Marzamemi, a small and characteristic fishing village. One of the symbols of this village is the tonnara, an ancient architectural structure dedicated to tuna fishing, one of the oldest and most important in the region. Our last stop will be the Island of Cape Passaro, which is the southeastern tip of Sicily, where the Ionian and Mediterranean seas meet. It will then be time to return to Avola, our starting point, enjoying a glass of prosecco accompanied by fresh fruit.
