A stand-up paddleboard tour from Giardini Naxos to Capo Taormina:

Discover Taormina Beaches by SUP!

Join our guided SUP tour, you will certainly love it! You will enjoy the stunning, unparalleled scenery and panorama view over the Taormina Bay.

Just €29 for a SUP tour with one of our guides, who in 2 hours will bring you to discover the most beautiful and clearest sea waters of the Bay of Taormina.

There has been a real surge in the popularity of stand-up paddle-boarding in the last few years. Stand-up paddleboarding (also called SUP) is a very popular water sport. If you have visited a beach anytime in the past few years, you have most likely noticed the increasing numbers of people gliding gracefully across the water. At first, it can seem surreal; on closer inspection, it becomes evident that they are stood up on what look like a surfboard and are propelling themselves across the water by means of a paddle.

Would you like to give it a try? Yes! You are then in the right place.

Itinerary

SUP tour program:

Our stand-up paddleboarding excursion in Taormina begins in the bay of Giardini Naxos, considered one of the most beautiful in Sicily. Once on the board, we’ll ride the waves and reach our first destination, a heart-shaped cave, better known as the Lovers’ Cave. We’ll then continue to our second destination: the unmissable Capo Taormina, a place of enchanting beauty, where we can enjoy a refreshing dip in the water.

We’ll then head back: but enjoying every moment in total relaxation! Our excursion will conclude with our return to the starting point, in Giardini Naxos.

The sea off the coast of Taormina is usually very calm and characterized by wonderful, warm blue waters, making it the ideal place for a new experience like this. The view of the city will make the panorama even more beautiful, and a simple day at the beach will turn into an unforgettable experience.

With or without a guide? Your choice!

The stand-up paddleboard excursion in Taormina lasts approximately 2 hours. You can choose between two options: you can request the company of a specialized instructor or book a SUP rental without an instructor. This second option is ideal for those with some experience with SUP, but if you’re completely inexperienced, don’t worry: using the boards is very simple and suitable for everyone, and after a short practical lesson, you’ll be ready to hit the water. SUP is truly the ideal way to enjoy the sun and sea and a relaxing day on the beach without getting bored!

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.
