Board in San Leone as the harbour yawns open and the engine’s low thrum pushes you past salt-sprayed rocks. The boat cuts a clean path along Agrigento’s southern flank; cliffs of chalky-white marl appear like a staircase dropped into the sea, daring you to climb them from the water. Small coves punctuate the coast — Maddalusa, Kaos Bay, the Madonnina — each with water clear enough to read the reef below.
easy.
3–4 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; must be able to step on and off a small boat and handle short swims.
The trip lasts about 3.5 hours with several swim stops and scenic passes along the Agrigento coast.
Yes—most itineraries include supervised swim stops; enter the water from the boat or on accessible shore areas as directed by the skipper.
Families can join; infants must sit on laps and non-swimmers should remain with the crew during water entries and wear life jackets if provided.
Access to the boat requires stepping on and off small craft; it’s not recommended for people with significant mobility difficulties.
The route traces the mouth of the ancient Akragas river and faces the archaeological plain of Agrigento; the white marl cliffs are the product of marine erosion over millennia.
Scala dei Turchi’s marl is fragile and subject to erosion and visitor pressure; follow crew guidance, avoid climbing the cliffs, and use reef-safe products to reduce impact.
