Sightseeing Cruises

Catania Coast Sailing Cruise with Swim Stop and Sicilian Aperitif

Unplug under sail along Sicily's lava cliffs, stopping to swim and snorkel off the boat then toast sunset views with a Sicilian aperitif.

Step aboard a Bavaria 46 or Dufour 41 sailing boat for a 4-hour route, fuel included so you simply stretch out and relax on deck.

Glide past sea views of Mount Etna and the Faraglioni of Aci Trezza, as the volcanic peak and sea stacks shift color in changing light.

With only 12 guests on board, the atmosphere stays calm and sociable, giving you space to lounge on deck, chat, read, or listen to waves.
