Cyclops Islands & Timpa Nature Reserve Boat Tour

At the time of your choice, we'll meet on Via Provinciale. At the port of Aci Castello, we'll get on a boat and set sail for a cruise along the east coast of Sicily.

First, we'll sail into the marine protected area of the Cyclops Islands. Here, we'll check out different small volcanic isles and even make a stop for you to go snorkeling! Groupers, seabreams, octopus and sea sponges are among the many species of marine flora and fauna you'll see. Under these waters, you'll also see curious rock formations of solidified lava.

Then, we'll continue sailing the Ionian Sea, heading north to see towns like Aci Trezza and Acireale. While we admire these coastal towns, we'll serve you a small snack consisting of various local products. 

Next, we'll move on to the Timpa Nature Reserve, a coastal oasis full of lush vegetation. As you soak in the site's natural beauty, we'll explain the geological importance and scenic value of this special place. Afterward, we'll start the trip back to Aci Castello. 

After four hours of sailing, we'll return to the starting point, where the boat trip will end.
