Riviera of Cyclops on Sailboat

Experience a sailing ride on board of a private sailboat along the lava cliffs of the Riviera of Cyclops, rock formations rich with stories of Greek myths and literature. Spend an awesome time, four hours relaxing and enjoyable on the boat, learning a bit about navigation. Soak in the sun, swim and dive. Our knowledgeable skipper will take you away from the hustle-bustle of tourist attractions to discover views of the Sicilian coast that could only be seen from the sea. Being able to see the Mount Etna from sea is amazing! Finish the day with a selection of handmade cookies and local sweet wine.

OVERVIEW

 

Leaving Catania port, we sail northwards the coast that here is fairly high and after passing the caves on the rocky shores, the so-called Ulysse’s Grottos, we glimpse the silhouette of the castle of Aci, a Norman fortress built on a rock made of a thick pile of basaltic globes on the sea. Turrets and battlements of the castle overlooking the old sailor’s village of Acitrezza with the Lachea island and the stacks of the Cyclops, now declared Marine Natural Reserve. Little further ahead the promontory of Capomulini.
