Itinerary
During our journey, we will have the opportunity to admire the imposing Castello Maniace, whose beauty is further enhanced by the suggestive shades of the sunset.
We will circumnavigate the island of Ortigia to allow you to enjoy the incredible view of the Duomo and the church of Santa Lucia, two architectural masterpieces, as well as the Ponte Umberto I, which has connected Ortigia to the mainland since the second half of the 19th century. Our itinerary will also include the characteristic small port, and the arcane former Bourbon prison. Next, you will see the Spanish walls and the magnificent Levante promenade in front of you, as we approach the Vigliena Fortress and the famous Maniace Castle, one of the symbols of Syracuse. The Fonte Aretusa, the Lungomare Alfeo and the Porta Marina will be the next points of interest.
We will sail towards Plemmirio (marine protected area) for some swimming stops in the most suggestive points of the route.
