Boat tour of the coast of Taormina and Isola Bella
Boat excursion between the most beautiful bays of Taorminaand Giardini Naxos. Discover with your own eyes why these fascinating places are the favorite destination of all tourists who visit Taormina and Sicily.
The coast of Taormina and Giardini Naxos offers a scenario of incomparable beauty, characterized by a succession of small beaches, bays and suggestive caves set in the rocky walls of this stretch of coast.
Among the most renowned caves we find: the Blue Grotto, located in the Marine Park of Isola Bella in Taormina, where we recommend wearing a mask and fins for a snorkeling adventure, the Grotta degli Innamorati overlooking the Gulf of Giardini Naxos, and the Coral Cave.
Boarding takes place from the Port of Giardini Naxos, and then continues towards Capo Taormina where it is possible to observe colonies of corals attached to the rock and some species of fish that populate these waters.
The tour continues towards the Isola Bella of Taormina where, once arrived, we will stop for a dip in the turquoise waters of this splendid bay. Once back on the boat, you will be welcomed by a refreshing aperitif accompanied by Sicilian almond pastries.
The tour continues towards the splendid Bay of Mazzarò until arriving at the Bay of Sirens, where it is possible to admire the luxurious hotels that overlook this stretch of coast and the very long Letojanni beach. Once the excursion is over, we will return to the starting point.
Through this boat excursion, we will give you moments of relaxation among the wonders of one of the most beautiful stretches of coast in eastern Sicily.
