Hop aboard this sunset boat tour, casting off from Taormina Bay to Giardini Naxos. As you glide along this stretch of the Sicilian coast, you'll pass caves and bays while your expert skipper tells you tales of this place's history. Plus, if you're lucky, you might see playful dolphins out for a swim. As the sun sets behind Mount Etna, there's time for a refreshing dip near Isola Bella, before a small bite to eat on board.

Sea was very choppy and unfortunately I did not like the experience as both myself and partner requested we go back to shore. My youngest daughter said it was a fantastic adventure and enjoyed the swimming and scenery. Food and drinks were provided and enjoyed by my daughter and other family members.

The sunset tour was lovely. It was choppy so we had to change pick up location and at first I was apprehensive but the skipper soon found calmer waters and it was a lovely experience. The skipper was 15 minutes late to pick us up, having already delayed 15 minutes (total of 30 mins late) and unfortunately didn’t speak much English. The scenery was beautiful and he told us all the names of the local caves. Really lovely experience.

Det här var en underbar tur och guiden var proffsig och vänlig. Snacks och dricka fanns att välja mellan och vi fick se både sevärdheter och njuta av lugnet på havet. Vi hade rätt hård sjögång längre ute men det var tydligt att kaptenen var en van båtchaufför som hanterade vågorna med finess! Enda minuset var att vi inte hade flytvästar, och det är helt okej att inte ha på sig men det hade varit bra att veta att/om/var dom fanns om något hade hänt. För övrigt 10/10 tur!
