What To Expect

Embark on an exclusive adventure on the "Ulysses Coast" departing from the picturesque port of Catania.

During the journey, we will pass through the suggestive area of Ognina until we reach the fascinating Caves of Ulysses, where the tale of legends that resonate in the echoes of time will begin. As we approach Aci Castello, we will listen to the stories of its majestic castle of Byzantine origin, built on a cliff that rises proudly towards the sea.

Our arrival in Aci Trezza will be marked by mooring at a reserved buoy near the legendary Faraglioni. Here we will offer you a detailed explanation of the geological formation of the stacks and the legends surrounding them, including the famous story of Lachea Island and the Cyclops reserve.

Among the planned activities, you will have the opportunity to explore the vibrant seabed with guided snorkeling or enjoy the sea more serenely with a SUP and paddle. We will also have a moment dedicated to taking a group photo, which you can easily download via a QR code.

We often meet dolphins too!

To enrich your experience, we will serve you a typical Sicilian aperitif accompanied by prosecco.
