This exclusive (sailing) boat tour offers the perfect combination of comfort, style and adventure. The boat has a spacious front deck for sunbathing, a cosy cabin and a large seating area at the rear of the boat. This makes the boat ideal for small groups or couples looking for an exclusive and intimate experience at sea off Taormina, Isola Bella and Giardini Naxos.

Depending on the length of the boat trip, you will pass at least the 4 main bays: Baia Capo Taormina, Baia Isola Bella, Baia delle Sirene, Baia Scoglio dell'Elefante. You will also sail past the numerous caves hidden in the rocks along the sea, such as Grotta Azzurra and Grotta del Giorno*.

Along the way you will also see the Faraglione del Fico d'India, the Scoglio dell'Elefante, Capo di Naxos, Capo Taormina and Isola Bella.

* It is not possible to enter the caves by sailboat, as the boat is too big to do so. Moreover, this is officially forbidden, although small boats do it.
