About the experience

Set sail along one of Sicily’s most storied coastlines, where ancient myths meet volcanic beauty. The Riviera dei Ciclopi is a spectacular stretch of the Ionian coast that dazzles with dramatic lava cliffs, charming fishing villages, and crystalline waters—perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and sipping prosecco in style.

Your day begins in the picturesque harbor of Santa Maria La Scala, a peaceful seaside village framed by volcanic rock and lush green slopes. From there, cruise to Capo Mulini, where calm, shallow waters and a scenic lighthouse set the scene for a perfect swim. Next up is the medieval allure of Aci Castello, a town built around a striking Norman castle perched on a lava promontory. Drop anchor and take in the views—or hop in for a dip beneath the shadow of ancient stones. The adventure continues in Aci Trezza, home to the legendary Faraglioni sea stacks, said to have been hurled by the Cyclops Polyphemus in Homer’s Odyssey. These volcanic giants rise dramatically from the sea, making it a dream spot for snorkeling, SUP, or simply floating with a cold drink in hand.

This tour blends scenic beauty with relaxed luxury. As you sail past volcanic cliffs and mythic landmarks, enjoy a curated experience complete with an expert crew, a delicious aperitif, and plenty of prosecco. Whether you’re sunbathing on deck, diving into clear Sicilian waters, or enjoying fresh fruit and snacks, every moment is designed for pleasure and discovery along this legendary coast
