Cruise From Syracuse

Our adventure begins at the Forum Vitorio Emanuele II at the designated time. We'll board a boat and set sail for a cruise around Ortigia and the Plemmirio Nature Reserve. Starting in the northern part of Syracuse, we will explore sea caves and rock formations resembling animal silhouettes. Next, we'll visit the Plemmirio Natural Reserve and anchor for one hour in the gulf of Pillirina, allowing time to enjoy the natural surroundings.

We will then circle the island of Ortigia, providing views of historical landmarks, including the Bourbon prison, Forte Vigliena, Castello Maniace, Fonte Arethusa, Lungomare Alfeo, and Porta Marina.

Throughout the tour, refreshments and seasonal fruits will be provided. A traditional lunch will also be served on board. Multiple stops will be made for swimming before returning to the port of Ortigia. After four hours, we will return to the meeting point.
