If you have merely 2 hours to spare, we suggest the ‘Island & sea caves’ adventure - we set sail towards the massive harbor post embarking. You will be awestruck by the scale of the gigantic port, one of the most extensive natural ports in the Mediterranean almost instantly. Following this, you will encounter the captivating Arethusa fountain viewed from the sea and the vast Maniace castle that marks the port’s exit.
As we leave the island behind, the journey takes us to the northern coast of Syracuse where you can enjoy some fresh juice and taste sumptuously fresh fruits. Our journey then navigates us closer to the caves, punctuated by a refreshing 10-minute swims stop.
Now relaxed and invigorated, we begin our exploration of the various caves: the capuchin cave, the coral cave, and finally the large cave, also known as the stalactite cave. Inside, you’ll discover magical limestone formations, a secret that we will unveil only once you are onboard.
