What to Expect
Depart from Torre Faro on a boat trip across the Strait of Messina and along the scenic Costa Viola, passing picturesque villages, crystal-clear waters, and fascinating sea caves. As you glide past the historic Ruffo Castle in Scilla, you will have the chance to admire the medieval architecture that overlooks the azure sea. The journey continues along the charming village of Chianalea, known for its seaside houses and narrow alleys, and the serene Spiaggia dell'Oliveto, offering a great view from the boat.
The first swim stop is at Favazzina, where the waters invite you to dive in and refresh. Afterwards, the boat takes you to the coastline of Bagnara, where you will explore the stunning caves: La Grotta di San Sebastiano, Arco di Aiace, Grotta delle Sirene, and Grotta delle Rondini. Each cave has its own unique charm and is a perfect spot for photography. The trip continues to the picturesque Cala Janculla beach for another swim stop. The natural beauty of this secluded beach is a perfect way to unwind before heading back.
After the relaxing swim stop at Cala Janculla, the tour concludes with a return to Torre Faro. The boat is well-equipped for comfort, offering shaded areas and seating to ensure a relaxing journey back. Enjoy the scenic views as you reflect on the memorable sights and experiences of the day.
