Discover the beauty of Syracuse from the sea on an unforgettable boat tour combining history, nature, sea caves, swimming and breathtaking Mediterranean scenery.

Set sail along the enchanting coastline of Ortigia and admire Syracuse’s most iconic landmarks from a unique perspective. During the cruise, you will see the magnificent Cathedral of Syracuse, the Church of Santa Lucia, the Venetian Palace, Umberto I Bridge, the small harbour, the former Bourbon Prison, the ancient Spanish Walls, the Levante waterfront, Forte Vigliena, Maniace Castle, the legendary Arethusa Spring, the Alfeo waterfront and the historic entrance to the Marina.

The journey continues towards the fascinating sea caves located along the northern coast of Syracuse. Your skipper will guide you through these extraordinary natural formations, sculpted over centuries by the sea and the wind.

Explore caves known for their unique shapes and features, including the romantic heart-shaped cave, rock formations reminiscent of the famous Ear of Dionysius, caves decorated with natural coral formations and many other spectacular shapes created by nature. Sunlight filtering through the openings reflects on the crystal-clear water and cave walls, creating beautiful shades of blue, turquoise and emerald and offering the perfect setting for unforgettable photos.

We will then continue towards the spectacular Plemmirio Marine Protected Area (Golfo della Pillirina), one of the most beautiful and unspoiled stretches of coastline around Syracuse. Admire its rocky cliffs, transparent waters and rich marine biodiversity while enjoying the peaceful atmosphere of the Mediterranean.

During the navigation in this area, you can spot dolphins swimming freely in their natural habitat, making the experience even more exciting and memorable.

The tour also includes swimming stops, giving you the opportunity to dive into the crystal-clear waters, cool off and fully enjoy the beauty of the Sicilian sea.

A complete experience that combines the history of Ortigia, spectacular sea caves, the natural beauty of Plemmirio, dolphin spotting and relaxing swimming stops — all from the privileged perspective of the sea.
