Description

Good to Know

Embark on a unique and exciting adventure among the Sicilian waves. Depart from the port of Catania until you reach the coast of Aci Trezza. Immerse yourself in the crystal clear waters of Lachea island, a protected natural reserve. Enjoy a typical Sicilian aperitif in company.

History and legends of Aci Castello and the Faraglioni of Aci Trezza.

Guided snorkeling, SUP and paddle, group photo.

Typical Sicilian with prosecco, served on board.

Skipper cost: €10 per person

Embark on an exclusive adventure on the "Ulysses Coast" departing from the picturesque port of Catania. During the journey, we will pass through the suggestive area of Ognina until we reach the fascinating Caves of Ulysses, where the tale of legends that resonate in the echoes of time will begin. As we approach Aci Castello, we will listen to the stories of its majestic castle of Byzantine origin, built on a cliff that rises proudly towards the sea. Our arrival in Aci Trezza will be marked by mooring at a reserved buoy near the legendary Faraglioni. Here we will offer you a detailed explanation of the geological formation of the stacks and the legends surrounding them, including the famous story of Lachea Island and the Cyclops reserve. Among the planned activities, you will have the opportunity to explore the vibrant seabed with guided snorkeling or enjoy the sea more serenely with a SUP and paddle. We will also have a moment dedicated to taking a group photo, which you can easily download via a QR code. We often meet dolphins too! To enrich your experience, we will serve you a typical Sicilian aperitif accompanied by prosecco.

Do this!!!

Michael and Emanuel were amazing! We had such a great group of people. You start the trip with a leisurely sail to your swimming/snorkeling location and then swim for a few hours! On the way, they tell you about myths and history related to Sicily and Catania. After swimming, you have a homemade spread of delicious bites! And of course, prosecco! 1000/10, cannot recommend this enough!

Relaxing time on the sea — highly recommend!

We are so happy we chose this amazing small group experience with our kind and wonderful hosts: Captain Michele and Emanuel. We sampled local food and prosecco, learned a bit about the mythology and history of the area, and swam, paddled, and snorkeled. Perfect for a family of four with two teenagers on a hot July day. It was a refreshing respite from site seeing.

Best boat trip !

Miguel and Michele were amazing. Excellent cooker (Miguel), appetizers were amazing! Outstanding prosecco (one of the best I ever had). Michele was our host, explaining details about the trip, area, historical curiosities. Money well spent, we felt at home. And our group was unique: people from different parts of the world.

All around great experience

This excursion was our favorite day of the trip. The captains were extremely hospitable and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day. The food was high quality, local, fresh, and delicious. The boat was clean and nice, we felt safe the whole time, our kids, tweens and teens had a blast and we saw lots of wildlife. An excellent experience.

Thank you so much, it was a pleasure having you all on my boat.

No-go but not any fault of the Captain

We were not able to make the trip as the sea was too choppy but our captain offered a full refund and still gave us a bottle of prosecco to share with our trip mates before we left the harbor. We were grateful for his safety concerns and will try again the next time we are in Sicily.
