Day trip by sailing boat to the Zingaro Nature Reserve

The one-day sailing excursion to the Zingaro Nature Reserve departing from Castellammare del Golfo gives you a unique experience off the Sicilian coast.

You will sail to the Zingaro Reserve, discovering the most famous coves and caves and admiring from the sea the majestic Faraglioni of Scopello and the Tonnara, a museum of the sea and tuna fishing traditions.

The ancient Greeks and Latins called this area Cetaria because of the abundance of tuna encountered in its waters.

During this day tour you will skirt Castellammare del Golfo, the first coves of the Coast such as Cala, Bianca, Cala Rossa, and then make your first swim stop at the Zingaro Nature Reserve in Cala dell'Uzzo, where you can explore the Grotta degli Innamorati and the small white pebble beach.

Afterwards, you will enjoy a brunch with Sicilian flavors in front of the famous Tonnara di Scopello with its Faraglioni rocks.

In the afternoon you will stop in Cala del Varo, Cala Capreria, Cala Marinella (depending on the wind) and Cala Rossa for a last dive.

The sailboat is moved mainly by the wind, so it is not possible to create a set itinerary. The skipper will choose the best stops and route before departure.

The skipper will share his experience with you through stories, legends and curiosities of the Sicilian territory or invite you to try some maneuvers to open the sails.

The experience is guaranteed with a minimum of 4 participants.
