Overview

Join us for an unforgettable adventure along the Sicilian coast. The tour starts from the historic Tonnara dei Florio, near the Arenella, and crosses the Gulf of Palermo, an area rich in marine life.

The first stop is the picturesque Baia dei Francesi, a rocky and isolated beach accessible only by sea, where we will stop to swim in its turquoise waters. We will then continue towards the Arco Azzurro, a spectacular natural arch suspended over the sea, and along a rugged coastline with small coves such as the Tre Piscine.

We will then reach Capo Zafferano, also known as Napoleon's Hat, where you can swim and enjoy an aperitif on board. The last stop will be the Formica Rock, ideal for snorkeling.

After about 6 hours, we will return to Palermo.

Note: the stop at the Formica Rock may be cancelled in case of unfavourable sea conditions.
