About the experience

A boat tour that encompasses the best of the Palermo coastline: wild nature, ancient history, and crystal-clear waters to explore. Ideal for those who want to experience a full day at sea, including snorkeling, incredible views, and absolute relaxation. Easily accessible by train from Palermo's historic center or by private transfer (by arrangement), the Porticciolo di San Nicola is the starting point for this unmissable adventure, a true hidden gem far from the chaos of the city.

You'll sail along a route that passes through places steeped in charm: from the majestic Norman Tower to the seaside village of Porticello, all the way to the evocative Bayesian Wreck, perfect for a snorkelling dive. Thrilling thrills await at the Secca delle Formiche, where open-water snorkeling offers surprising encounters with marine life. After a moment of relaxation at Capo Zafferano, the voyage continues along the majestic promontory of Capo Mongerbino, a breathtaking panoramic point.

The afternoon begins with a spectacular sail across the Gulf of Palermo, overlooking the historic Conca d'Oro, the Old Town seen from the sea, and the imposing Monte Pellegrino. A final stop is planned for a dip in the blue.

The tour includes complimentary SUP equipment and snorkeling. Throughout the day, guests will be served local sweet and savory snacks, beverages, including alcoholic beverages, and prosecco.

    We had an incredible day sailing in Sicily! Fazbrizio was extremely communicative and flexible, which we appreciated so much. We were delayed by three hours due to a highway accident, and he was so kind and understanding about it. Once on board, he went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience. He took us to stunning spots along the island that we never would have discovered on our own. He was also a fantastic host: interesting to talk to and full of fascinating stories and historical knowledge. This experience was truly a highlight of our trip—highly recommend!

    A wonderful experience with Fabrizio and his boat... Spectacular scenery, a sailboat in excellent condition, and very friendly and pleasant service. We learned about and learned part of Sicily's history, its gastronomy, and its people through Fabrizio and Luigi's stories... Thank you both so much for a great family day!
