Rosa dei Venti Sea Experience
Boat and Dinghy Excursions along the Coast of Castellammare del Golfo A boat or dinghy excursion along the coast of Castellammare del Golfo is an unmissable experience for those wishing to explore the natural and marine wonders of western Sicily. The tour departs from the picturesque port of Castellammare del Golfo and follows one of the most stunning stretches of coastline in the Mediterranean. Scopello’s Coves and Faraglioni The first stop is the enchanting village of Scopello, famous for its iconic Faraglioni (sea stacks) and ancient tuna fishery (tonnara). Here, you can enjoy a swim in crystal-clear waters, surrounded by breathtaking scenery and cliffs that echo tales of fishermen and maritime traditions. Zingaro Nature Reserve Continuing westward, the boat enters the Zingaro Nature Reserve, a protected area accessible only on foot or by sea. Boat excursions allow you to discover the reserve’s hidden coves — such as Cala dell’Uzzo, Cala Marinella, and Cala Berretta — all characterized by pristine waters and unspoiled nature, perfect for snorkeling and relaxation. San Vito Lo Capo The tour can extend to San Vito Lo Capo, renowned for its fine white sandy beach and turquoise waters. It’s an ideal stop for a seafood couscous lunch or a stroll through the lively town center. Onboard Experience The boats and dinghies used for the excursion are equipped with all comforts: shaded areas, ladders for easy water access, snorkeling gear, and often expert guides who share local stories and insights. The experience can be private or shared with small groups, and is suitable for families, couples, or groups of friends.
