Adventure Tips

Wear water shoes

Rocky shorelines and uneven underwater terrain make water shoes essential for comfort and safety.

Bring reef-safe sunscreen

Protect your skin and Sicily’s marine habitats by using environmentally safe sunscreen products.

Hydrate well in advance

Carry water and drink frequently, as sea adventures can dehydrate you quickly under the Mediterranean sun.

Prepare for limited cell signal

Some remote coves have weak or no mobile reception, so plan accordingly for communication needs.
