Boat Trip Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Scalo dell’Arenella, from where we'll set sail on an exciting cruise along the coast of Palermo. We'll board a 7-metre-long (22 ft) boat equipped with a sunbathing area, shower and a music system. Cameras at the ready?

We'll start sailing for about 20 minutes until we reach the first stop: Addaura. Here, you can take a refreshing swim in its turquoise waters and enjoy the natural environment of this quiet cove. After approximately 25 minutes, we'll resume our journey.

A few metres away, we'll find the Gulf of Mondello, where we'll make our second stop for a swim away from the hustle and bustle of the beach, a paradise for those who are looking for peace and quiet! We'll spend 30 minutes there before continuing on to the next jewel of the coastline.

Have you worked up an appetite? During the cruise, you'll enjoy an apéritif of fresh Sicilian fruit. Drinks such as water, soft drinks, iced tea or a glass of prosecco will also be available. Cheers!

Our next destination will be the spectacular Capo Gallo Nature Reserve, an ideal place for snorkelling. Here, we'll stop for about 40 minutes, and you'll be able to swim surrounded by fish in a totally protected environment.

We'll continue sailing until we reach the magical Grotta dell'Olio. This sea cave is perfect for swimming inside, surrounded by unique rock formations. We'll spend about 40 minutes there.

The last stop will be the enchanting Isolotto delle Femmine. This small island off the coast of Palermo offers incredible views and clean waters where you can relax and take another dip—you'll be amazed!

On the way back, we'll pass by the picturesque fishing village of Barcarello, a most authentic spot that you can admire from the sea as we make our way back to the harbour.

Finally, we'll reach the mainland and say goodbye at the starting point after a total of 4 hours.
