Visit the Coast of Ulysses with its caves with our sailing trip from Catania with snorkeling, SUP board and apéritif included. Starting from the charming port of Catania at the Blu Marina pier, we embark on a voyage along the Sicilian coastline, rich with history and mythology. Our journey takes us past the remarkable area of Ognina, known for its 1693 lava flow, creating a unique landscape that is both historical and striking.
As we continue, we reach the captivating Grotte di Ulisse, where you'll hear tales of legends that echo through time. Moving along, the imposing Aci Castello comes into view, with its majestic Byzantine castle perched on a rock that juts proudly into the sea. Here, you will learn about its intriguing past while enjoying the breathtaking coastal scenery.
Our next stop is Aci Trezza, where you can dive into the water for a refreshing swim, try your hand at snorkeling, or enjoy a bit of adventure with a stand-up paddleboard.

Michel and Emmanuel were fantastic from the moment we arrived until we left!
They are very welcoming, kind, and go out of their way to ensure you have a wonderful time.
We were in a small group (9 people), which was perfect for enjoying some intimate moments while also meeting new people.
We loved the activity from beginning to end; everything was perfect, and we were even lucky enough to see dolphins. Our best activity in Catania! Go for it without hesitation!
