Overview

Discovering the lava coast by boat – From Catania to the Cyclops Riviera (for 35 people)

Experience eastern Sicily from the sea, away from the tourist circuits.
Join us for a private mini cruise to discover the coast between Catania, Acicastello, Acitrezza and the hidden village of Santa Maria la Scala.

You will sail through lava cliffs, Norman castles overlooking the sea, volcanic stacks and coves perfect for a dip. On board, our crew will share with you stories and legends of the territory, from the mythology of Polifemo to the local fishermen who still live the sea with respect and passion.

What the tour includes
– Departure from the port of Catania with a view of Mount Etna
– Stop for swimming under the Castle of Acicastello
– Snorkeling among the stacks of the Cyclops in Acitrezza
- Sicilian snacks and soft drinks on board included at Santa Maria la Scala.
It's not just a boat trip.
It is a journey into the heart of the Sicilian sea, between myth, nature and authenticity.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    (7)

    Q: Will I get seasick on Catania on board a super yacht for up to 35 people?

    A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
