Overview

This 2-hour boat tour offers a simple and pleasant way to see Syracuse from the sea, without hurrying. The navigation runs along Ortigia and Porto Grande, passing cliffs, sea caves and natural coves that are not visible from the mainland.
Along the way you will encounter several caves, including the area known as Cave with Corals, where the sea takes on intense colors and the coast shows its more natural side. On board, the skipper tells curiosities and stories related to the places crossed, leaving space for moments of observation, photographs and relaxation.
It is an experience suitable for those who want to enjoy the sea and the landscape in a quiet way, experiencing Syracuse from a different and more authentic perspective, without forced activities or rigid programs.
