About the experience

A full-day sailing trip aboard the Dufour 37, brand new for the 2026 season, departing from Catania with the skipper at the helm, heading towards Aci Trezza, the seaside village where Greek mythology meets the sea. Along the coast, you can glimpse the Faraglioni, the Cyclops Islands, which, according to legend, were hurled into the sea by the Cyclops Polyphemus during his battle with Odysseus: a tale the skipper happily shares as we sail along this stretch of volcanic coast.

One of the highlights of the day is a swim stop in the crystal-clear waters off Lachea Island, where you can snorkel among the volcanic rock formations and observe the reserve's rich marine life. The rest of the day is free to explore the coast of Aci Trezza, with the option of stopping for lunch at a seaside restaurant or staying on board, depending on the group's preferences.

An aperitif with both non-alcoholic and alcoholic beverages is served on board, and a complete snorkeling kit is available for those who want to explore the seabed along the way. The Dufour 37, with its spacious interior and welcoming cockpit, is the ideal boat for experiencing this day of history, myth, and sea in complete relaxation, with Mount Etna often visible in the background along the coast, a reminder of how unique this corner of Sicily is.

The experience is entirely customizable: contact the owner via chat to organize the details of the day, including a possible lunch on land. Book now on Click&Boat.
