Marvel at the Medieval Castle
While sailing towards Acitrezza, you’ll pass beneath the medieval castle of Acicastello. The view of the castle by the sea is spectacular. You can observe the distinctive “pillow lavas” found under the castle, formed by the rapid cooling of submarine eruptions.
- Acitrezza - Once docked at the port of Aci Trezza, you’ll have about an hour of free time to spend as you wish (this time is not included in the daily charter and is your responsibility).
For example, you could take a walking tour of the charming fishing village of Acitrezza. Alternatively, you could hire a pedalo (included in the price) or use a transport service on a small fishing boat to Lachea Island, the heart of the reserve, where you can snorkel with equipment provided by us.
Back on the boat, we will serve you lunch (included in the price): appetizer, first fish course (may vary depending on the availability of the catch of the day), fresh seasonal fruit, water, and white wine Doc.
*It is possible to request a vegetarian or vegan menu. For any other dietary requirements (gluten-free, vegan diet, etc.), please let us know when booking.
Return to the port is expected around 6 PM.
