About this tour
This eight-hour private boat tour departs Castellammare del Golfo and traces the Sicilian coast to San Vito Lo Capo in a nimble 11–12 metre rubber dinghy carrying up to 12 passengers. Unlike larger vessels, these smaller craft access hidden coves and shallow beaches throughout the Zingaro Reserve and around Scopello, allowing swimming stops in genuinely turquoise water. You'll explore sea caves, anchor in secluded bays, and finish with lunch and a village wander in San Vito Lo Capo.
Highlights
- Shallow-draft access to turquoise swimming spots big boats cannot reach
- Zingaro Reserve coves and Scopello's dramatic coastal formations
- Explore and photograph sea caves along the route
- Lunch break with local dishes in San Vito Lo Capo village
- Wine, water, and refreshments included throughout
- Local guide commentary on the coastal landscape
What to expect
You'll board a compact inflatable vessel designed for agility rather than bulk. The ride hops between sheltered anchorages, pausing frequently for swims in water so clear you'll see the seabed. The boat cuts close to limestone cliffs and into shadowed cave mouths that larger ferries cannot navigate. Mid-afternoon you'll tie up at San Vito Lo Capo's working harbour, where you can stretch legs, eat, and browse the modest town before the return leg.
Good to know
Not suitable if pregnant, recovering from spinal injury, or managing cardiovascular issues. Infants must sit on an adult's lap; pushchairs can be stowed. Bring sunscreen and a rash vest—exposure on the water compounds quickly. Public transport reaches the departure point.
