Choose your departure harbour

Experiences advertised around Catania can depart from the city harbour or from coastal towns such as Aci Trezza. Confirm the exact map pin, check-in instructions and parking or transfer options. Do not assume hotel pickup is included in a sailing ticket.

Sailing, swimming or sightseeing?

A sightseeing cruise prioritises the coastline; a sailing trip may spend longer moving at a slower pace. Swimming and snorkelling stops depend on the route, season and sea conditions. Look for explicit inclusions such as drinks, equipment and onboard facilities.

Around the Cyclops Coast, routes may take in Aci Castello and the sea stacks off Aci Trezza. Check the actual itinerary rather than assuming every cruise visits both.

Before heading out on the water

Check the operator’s weather policy and what happens if conditions prevent departure. Bring sun protection and follow the crew’s advice on footwear and belongings. Ask about age limits, accessibility and swimming requirements before booking, particularly for small boats.

Keep other things to do in Catania in mind if the weather changes. For outings on land, compare day trips from Catania.
