Sicily Boats’ Private Boat Tour at Ciriga from Marzamemi

Set against the shimmering coastline of Sicily’s southeastern tip, the boat adventure from Marzamemi with Sicily Boats offers a curated escape into the island’s underwater and coastal marvels. Starting from the charming fishing village, this journey threads through crystal-clear waters, revealing submerged Roman columns that hint at the area's ancient history. As the boat glides past the rugged coastlines, visitors can snorkel in pristine waters, discovering vibrant marine life and hidden coral formations.

One of the trip's highlights is the chance to visit Capopassero fortress, a striking coastal structure that stands as a testament to Sicily’s strategic maritime history. Nearby, the Grotta del Polipo invites snorkelers into a cavernous wonderland, where stalactites hang like natural chandeliers and shadows dance on the sea floor. Further out, the towering Faraglioni di Punta Ciriga—giant sea stacks rising from the water—create a dramatic backdrop that’s perfect for photographs.

After a day of swimming and sightseeing, the adventure winds down with a Sicilian aperitif on deck, watching the sunset paint the sky in hues of crimson and gold.
