Meeting at 1.30pm at my information office “Antonio” located in Via Vulcano n. 7. Position: https://goo.gl/maps/tkGKy1oUdNZrfQ697
Departure from the Port of Giardini Naxos.
We will sail along the coast admiring, with the backdrop of Etna, the Riviera of Giardini Naxos/Taormina, approaching imposing rocks such as the Faraglioni, skirting enchanting bays and circumnavigating Isola Bella, Nature reserve with crystal clear waters.
Itinerary:
We will sail along the coast and along the entire Riviera of Giardini Naxos and Taormina admiring:
- Naxos Bay with the historic Palazzo De Spuches and the seafront;
- Cave of the day always illuminated by the glare of the sun and shelter for fishermen;
- Capo Taormina, a mighty promontory that dominates the “Faraglioni del Capo”, located between the bay of Naxos and Isola Bella;
- Isola Bella, historical-artistic monument, Nature Reserve, Pearl of the Mediterranean;
- Mazzaro' Bay, an enchanting bay with naturalistic charm;
- Bay of S. Nicola, ancient Roman port;
- Spisone Bay, an oasis of serenity.
Refreshing stop of about 30 minutes for diving or, for those who wish, also doing some snorkelling while admiring our marine fauna and flora (we do not provide a mask and tube), but above all, to taste an appetising aperitif with small arancini or with mixed pizza (it depends on the menu of the day) and a glass of prosecco.
Then if the weather and sea conditions allow it, we will move away from the coast to search for dolphins and if we are lucky, they will offer us a natural show with amazing jumps, playing hide and seek under the boat or alongside us, and we will be able to take unforgettable souvenir photos with them.
We are not guaranteed to see them all the time.
The boat tour lasts about 3 hours and will be shared with other people on board. Disembarkation will always be at the Port of Giardini Naxos.
