Sailing adventure in Ortigia

This half day cruise aboard the charming classic sail boat Fiesta II is a very relaxing and romantic way to spend an afternoon on the water in the magical town of Ortigia. We usually sail in the afternoon along Siracusa coast line and within the marine sanctuary of Plemmirio where the water is always warm enough for a dip to refresh or to explore the coves. During the sailing I would like you to help me trying your hand at ruddering Fiesta II and trimming the sails with me, as part of the crew. We eventually celebrate the sunset ritual getting anchored in the bay in front of the castle with a rich aperitif based on local wines and food provided by farmers and producers. The boat is a 38 feet Carol Ketch built in France according to the original plans of the american designer John Hanna by 1922. The boat is charming and well maintained with enough space for groups up to ten people. Cabin, head and deck-shower are available on board, we provide snorkel gears and towels as well. This experience is for everyone and it is a different way to relax and, at the same time, live the sea for one day. Let us know ahead of time if you have any dietary restrictions or special needs.
