Description

Having only 2 hours at your disposal, the "Island & sea caves" excursion is exactly what we recommend; after embarking, we head towards the big port. You will begin to see the majesty of the large port, which is one of the largest natural ports in the Mediterranean, immediately afterwards we will see the Arethusa fountain with its charm from the sea and the immense Maniace castle that indicates the exit of the port. After leaving the island, we head towards the north coast of Syracuse where, between a sip of fresh juice and tasting of excellent fresh fruit, we approach the caves where we immediately start with a beautiful 10-minute swim stop. After having cooled down a bit, we begin to enter the various caves: the capuchin cave, the coral cave and finally the large cave, also known as the stalactite cave, yes, because inside during the times suggestive limestone shapes were formed that we will reveal only when you will be on board.
