Itinerary

25 min

ISOLA BELLA La spiaggia Isola Bella è la più famosa e fotografata non solo di Taormina, ma di tutta la Sicilia. La baia racchiusa tra Capo Taormina e Capo Sant'Andrea con incastonata al centro, come una perla preziosa, non a caso viene chiamata “La Perla del Mediterraneo” Ricoperto di macchia mediterranea ed essenze esotiche, l'incantevole isolotto è un rigoglioso giardino botanico, Le acque assumono stupefacenti colorazioni cangianti. Per il resto, invece, sono limpide e incredibilmente trasparenti, poco profonde e disseminate di scogli, ideali quindi per nuotare e fare snorkeling tra alghe e pesci di scogliera.

20 min

BAIA DI MAZZARO' In soli 10 minuti da Taormina si può visitare la spiaggia di Mazzarò, situata in un’incantevole insenatura dove la natura domina il paesaggio ed il mare splende di riflessi turchini e smeraldini. E' da sempre la preferita dai taorminesi, fin da quando Mazzarò era un minuscolo borgo di pescatori. Praticamente all'arrivo della funivia, delle spiagge di Taormina è considerata la più elegante, su cui si affacciano alcuni degli hotel più lussuosi della zona. Ma anche se non alloggiate in uno di questi resort, non perdete l'occasione di fare un tuffo nell'acqua azzurra e limpida di questa meravigliosa baia incorniciata dai promontori verdi e selvaggi di Capo Sant'Andrea e Capo Mazzarò, in cui si aprono grotte e anfratti marini che potete esplorare con maschera e pinne. Come nella vicina Isola Bella, anche qui la spiaggia è di ghiaia e sassolini e trovate sia stabilimenti balneari sia zone libere.

15 min

CAPOTAORMINA Distante circa 5 km dalla grande baia di Naxos, il Capo Taormina, con il suo fondale roccioso e i suoi picchi di roccia che fuoriescono dall’acqua rappresenta uno scenario di incomparabile bellezza! La graziosa laguna riparata dal capo che sprofonda in un fondale misto pressoché sabbioso a circa 25 metri di profondità; dov'è possibile osservare colonie di coralli attaccati alla roccia e alcune specie di pesci che popolano queste acque. Uno scenario magico ed unico grazie alla sua incantevole posizione. Volgendo lo sguardo verso sud ammiriamo la Maestosita` dell’Etna, il piu` alto vulcano d’Europa che sovrasta la baia di Giardini Naxos. La baia di Capotaormina offre ai suoi ospiti un elegante e affascinante momento.

15 min

BAIA DI SPISONE Grossi massi che affiorano nel mare qua e là sono il tratto distintivo della spiaggia di Spisone, a nord di Taormina. Trovandosi in prossimità del casello dell'autostrada, è facilmente raggiungibile. La spiaggia di Spisone si trova nella baia di Taormina, popolata da molti lidi ma anche da alcuni tratti di spiaggia libera. Molto suggestivi gli isolotti di pietra che affiorono dalle acque. La sabbia è di sassolini ed il fondale vario . La parte più suggestiva è quella verso Capo Mazzarò, con rocce a strapiombo e spiaggia stretta.

30 min

BAIA DI VILLAGONIA Una delle spiagge più comode da raggiungere dal centro città. La spiaggia di Villagonia è un vero e proprio golfo naturale, costituita da roccia e ghiaia,si trova ai piedi di Taormina, vicinissima alla Stazione ferroviaria di Taormina-Giardini. È una delle spiagge più belle in Sicilia, per la sua sabbia bianca e il suo mare trasparente, frequentata da abitanti del posto e turisti provenienti da tutto il mondo.

15 min

BAIA DELLE SIRENE La baia delle sirene è una delle migliori località balneare di taormina. Poco visibile dall'esterno perché riparata da un piccolo promontorio,risulta un luogo poco affollato. La baia è molto simile ad un porto naturale in cui si riparano i pescatori locali. All' interno è caratterizzata da un fondale molto basso e quindi molto visible, ricrea l'habitat perfetto per molte specie marine in particolare la posidonia una pianta marina ricca di proprieta importanti per l'ecosistema delnostro mare. Molto suggestivi gli isolotti di pietra che affiorono dalle acque color smeraldo, un luogo ideale per gli appassionati di snorkeling.

The sunset boat tour...

The sunset boat tour itself was beautiful, and the views were absolutely worth it. However, I was disappointed that it was advertised as an aperitif tour, yet no snacks or appetizers were served, only drinks. An aperitif typically includes at least a few light bites, so that was misleading and didn’t meet my expectations. If you’re booking this expecting the traditional aperitivo experience, just be aware that it’s drinks only. The scenery and atmosphere were still lovely, but I think the description should be more accurate.

Small boat tour nothing fancy challenging logistics

The pick up location was very interesting to find because it was simply a boat that came up to shore and dropped a ladder. Not convenient at all for any public transportation to or from. The boat captain did a great job navigating and the trip guide spoke good English and let you know what you were looking at. It was perfect for me to get all the pictures I wanted from the sea

Had a very good time and...

Had a very good time and terrific views from the boat. Swimming was fantastic. Snacks were just chips and we did not receive an aperol spritz but instead a small glass of of presecco. Was able to message your to find out exactly where to meet. Also group was small - just 9 which was nice but there was room for more. Would do this again.

The boat is small but...

The boat is small but comfortably sat all 20 of us. The food is only crisps and cheese puffs. They offer only 1 glass of prosecco and you have to make a specific request for water and they don’t serve you that when they serve the prosecco to everyone. The tour guide and captain were both very friendly. The ride was beautiful. It was still worth the money, just bring your own water.

Operator response

Hello, thank you for your feedback ! The boat have a capacity of 24 passengers , we offer some bar snacks .. We have water on board and of course we serve to you it in unlimited quantities. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding with the skipper. We usually serve two glasses each. Thank you for your feedback! For any questions we are available. Best Regards Andrea from Boat Experience Taormina

Amazing boat experience,

I had the best experience doing this boat ride. The captain was so kind and the song at sunset was made the ride come to a perfect ending!

Boring boat ride with bad snacks.

Lackluster at best. Bad music and the snacks were even worse. Stale chips and cheese puffs - in Sicily! It definitely could have been a more elevated experience. I was disappointed. My opinion - not worth it.

Operator response

Hello, thank you for your review. Music is subjective; while it may not have been to your taste, the rest of the group enjoys it. As for the aperitivo, we offer a variety of drinks and simple bar snacks—including vegan and vegetarian options—designed to please everyone. In Italy, the aperitivo is typically accompanied by things like potato chips and peanuts—simple, pre-packaged snacks. People certainly don't come to us for the food itself, but rather for the experience: a boat trip at sea featuring scenic views, hidden coves, and opportunities for swimming and snorkeling. For any questions we are available. Thank you. Best Regards Andrea from Boat Experience Taormina

Lovely way to see the sights

Lovely way to see the sights of Taormina and the swimming was lovely. The host was excellent and knowledgeable. Snack were crisps and nuts and the only let down was the drinks, 1 glass of Prosecco and a bottle of beer, no sunset aperitifs
