Itinerary

Snorkeling tour program:

The price of the Taormina snorkeling tour is €45 and includes the provision of technical equipment (fins, mask, snorkel, wetsuit) and a small aperitif at the end of the trip. By the way, you’ll be accompanied by a certified PADI scuba instructor, who will provide you with all the basic knowledge (both technical and theoretical) to safely complete the snorkeling excursion. You’ll be in safe hands!

Our boat awaits you at the port of Giardini Naxos. From there, we’ll sail along the bay, admiring Taormina overlooking the rugged coastline until we reach Isola Bella for our first dive, but not before admiring the Lovers’ Cave, famous for its fascinating orange corals. The first dive site, the Isola Bella Marine Park, is an ideal place for snorkeling, thanks to its lush vegetation and numerous fish swimming alongside you. We will do the second dive in a place known as the Bay of Sirens, and here too you will be surrounded by wonderful nature that will amaze you.

The seabed of Taormina:

The coast of Taormina is predominantly rocky, and the seabed is characterized by large expanses of fine sand, meadows of Posidonia oceanica, and large underwater boulders that slope down to a depth of 60 meters.

Perfect day of exploring volcanoes and wines! If you’re looking to explore the volcanic wonders of Etna, look no further! Our trip to the craters and ice caves was absolutely top-notch. A huge shout-out to our guide, Gianni. Not only is he a walking encyclopedia of volcanic knowledge, but he also possesses the secret superpower of navigating those tiny, winding Sicilian roads with absolute ease. I’m pretty sure he could drive a tour bus through a needle’s eye! The day was capped off perfectly with some incredible wine tasting. If you want a mix of adventure, education, and delicious wine—all while feeling completely safe despite the road width—book this tour. Simply fantastic!"

Very informative tour and lots of lunch and wine Our guide Lucas was charming, informative and really interesting to listen to. We learnt so much about the volcano, its history, vegetation and geology, within a warm friendly group. We climbed up the lava flow to view craters and went down into a lava tube. Finally we had a wine tasting with very free flowing wine and a great lunch. A fantastic day - would highly recommend.

Great experience This tour beat expectations. The hike on the slopes of Etna was beautiful and informative - especially as we could hear the volcano erupting during the day (though no lava visible on the northern slopes). Our guide, Lucas, was knowledgeable and very personable, taking photos of all 3 couples at several scenic stops. The Gambino winery was also high quality - delicious wines and food, with generous pours and friendly service. Our tour was only 6 people in total. A great way to spend the day near Taormina.
