Boat Tour to Zingaro Reserve and Scopello from San Vito Lo Capo

The boat leaves the port and begins a scenic coastal navigation toward the Zingaro Nature Reserve. Spanning about 7 km, the reserve is a haven of marine and terrestrial biodiversity, with a rugged coastline full of caves, coves and small beaches accessible only by sea.

30 min

Our first highlight is Cala Tonnarella dell’Uzzo, one of the most iconic coves of the reserve. Characterized by turquoise waters and a seabed rich in marine life, it offers excellent conditions for swimming and snorkeling, even for beginners.

15 min

We continue toward Cala del Leone, a more secluded and less frequented cove. Surrounded by steep cliffs and Mediterranean vegetation, this area is known for its deep blue waters and peaceful atmosphere, ideal for relaxing and immersing yourself in nature.

30 min

One of the most evocative spots along the route is the Grotta degli Innamorati. This sea cave opens onto a tiny hidden beach inside, reachable only by swimming. Here you’ll have the opportunity to snorkel directly into the cave, experiencing a truly unique and memorable moment surrounded by natural rock formations and shimmering reflections.

30 min

The navigation continues toward the legendary Tonnara di Scopello, one of the oldest and most photographed tuna fisheries in Sicily. Set in a stunning bay dominated by two imposing faraglioni (sea stacks), this historic site tells the story of traditional tuna fishing while offering crystal-clear waters and a rich seabed, making it a perfect snorkeling stop.

30 min

Around lunchtime, we reach the port of Castellammare del Golfo. You’ll have approximately two hours of free time to explore the charming historic center, stroll along the marina, or enjoy lunch at one of the local restaurants, where you can taste typical Sicilian and Trapani-style dishes.

2 h

After the break, we head back to sea toward Cala Bianca. This small bay is known for its light-colored pebbles and exceptionally transparent waters, creating bright reflections beneath the surface. It’s an ideal spot for a refreshing swim in a quiet, natural setting.

30 min

Our final swimming stop is Cala Rossa, named after the reddish hues of the surrounding rocks. Sheltered and scenic, this cove offers calm waters and a striking contrast of colors, making it the perfect place for one last swim before heading back.

30 min

During the return navigation, relax on board while our skipper serves a traditional Sicilian aperitif with local delicacies and cold drinks, accompanied by pleasant music. The tour concludes with the return to the port of San Vito Lo Capo at approximately 5:00 p.m.
