10/10!!

We had a fantastic time on board sailing around the beautiful coastline of Catania! Our tour guides Gioacchino & Prew were absolutely brilliant - very knowledgable stories about Catania, Mt. Etna and Italy. If you want a nice, relaxing way to spend half a day with a cold brew, cool dip and a slower pace to break up your holiday this is the excursion for you. Thanks guys!

Dreamy sailing tour

It was an all-around beautiful and relaxing boat tour. Carlotta was simply wonderful. She provided us with a beautiful morning and explained everything well. We saw an incredible number of dolphins. It was a dream. We would book it again at any time! Best regards Robin and Frank

They should not charge more than the agreed price

The experience was very pleasant with hosts, Gioacchino and Ugo, who were very nice. What I found unacceptable is that in addition to the price paid for the excursion, they charged us an additional €15 before boarding the boat without having communicated it anywhere when confirming the reservation.

A beautiful experience.

I had wanted to have this experience for a long time, and I finally decided to go for it. I found a truly fantastic crew; the captain, Gregorio, was very accommodating and excellently illustrated the beauties of the Catanese coast, also proving to be extremely competent regarding sailing navigation. His second-in-command, Sofia, was truly extraordinary. In addition to managing the sails, she took care of the catering and entertained us by integrating the information provided by the captain. I recommend, to all sailing enthusiasts, to give it a try.

Great afternoon sail and swim

Really nice afternoon filled with singles and couples. Enrique and Roberto were super nice and shared a lot of local information like the cyclops rocks from The Odyssey one of my books. Great snacks and drink too!

Coastal sailing trip

Great trip with the sailing boat from Catania port along the coast up North. Sofia and Giorgio were great and relaxed hosts that thought us a bit about Sicily. Really enjoyed the swim and the aperitivo.
