About the experience

Depart from the Port of Catania and let yourself be whisked away to one of the most secluded and enchanting corners of the Sicilian coast. A four-hour boat ride with two professional skippers will take you to Baia Arcile—a sheltered natural cove near Brucoli, far from the crowds, where time seems to have stood still.

We set sail south, skirting La Playa di Catania with its golden sandy beach and majestic Mount Etna in the background, then we cross the Gulf of Catania into the open sea, accompanied by a sea breeze.
Our destination is Baia Arcile in Augusta: a picturesque cove with crystal-clear waters, the famous turtle rock, and perfect seabeds for snorkeling and SUP.
The ideal place to slow down, swim, and forget everything. On the return journey, the late afternoon light offers a completely different perspective of Mount Etna from the sea—perhaps even more beautiful than the one we saw on the outward journey.

On board, you'll find everything you need for a perfect day: welcome prosecco, two bottles of wine, beer, soft drinks, coffee, water, and a generous finger food menu featuring typical Sicilian products. Also included are a SUP, snorkeling equipment, beach towels, Wi-Fi, electricity, and final cleaning.

Skipper (€300), fuel (€800), port taxes (€300), and catering (€600) are paid directly at the port.

A bay, complete peace, the most beautiful sea in Sicily.

Embarkation in the Port of Catania
The tour will start from the port of Catania, where guests will board and begin sailing southward along the southern stretch of Sicily's eastern coast.
The Beach of Catania
Shortly after departure, we will coast along La Playa, Catania's historic and expansive golden sand beach, offering a panoramic view that beautifully frames the coastline with Mount Etna standing in the background.
