Overview
Boat Tour: Ortigia, Sea Caves and La Pillirina.
Island of Ortigia:
We will sail around the beautiful Island of Ortigia, admiring its ancient walls, the Maniace Castle and the elegant palaces overlooking the sea. You will see Ortigia from a unique perspective, away from the chaos and immersed in the sea breeze.
The Sea Caves:
We will delve into the spectacular caves carved into the rock by the sea over the centuries. A game of lights, reflections and colors that takes your breath away. Each cave has its own peculiarity, among stalactites, natural basins and crystal clear waters.
La Pillirina (Plemmirio Area):
Last stop: the Bay of Pillirina, one of the most beautiful and wildest areas of the Syracuse coast. Here you can take a dip in clear waters, snorkel and enjoy the unspoilt nature of the Plemmirio Reserve.
