During the sailing you will be active part of the whales excursions by using binoculars (rented) while our marine biologist will give you all the appropriate instructions and detailed information about the biology of the animals we see.
If you want it is possible to do the offshore snorkeling and live the extraordinary emotion to swim with the Dolphins accompanied by the marine biologist. To do the snorkeling, you will be provided with the necessary equipment (wetsuit, mask, snorkel and fins).
The area of interest is included along the coastline between Capo Mulini (CT) and Taormina (ME). The jagged coastline trait is mainly made up by igneous rocks. The continental platform is mostly absent and the sea bottom rapidly decrease up to 80 meters within a mile of the coast.
In this area there is a high degree of productivity thanks to the different currents coming from the flow of the waters in the Strait of Messina so that the Ionian sea, that flows through the eastern coast of Sicily, is highly influenced and it creates a suitable environment, nourishing for many species.
