Overview of your Messina tour:

The Messina Strait, between the Sicilian and the Calabrian coasts, is one of the most enchanting spots of Italy. Crossed by winds and opposing currents, it has always been shrouded in legend. The meeting of those currents generates light whirlpools onto the sea surface in which the Greek sailors, anciently, used to recognize two sea monsters, "Scilla and Cariddi", living under the sea. The currents and the characteristic chemistry of the waters determine an extraordinary and unique ecosystem with a high variety of species. We will sail safely, driven by the wind, thanks to the experienced skipper and ship owner of one most comfortable and classy offshore sailboats of Sicily: "Mascalzone Siculo". We will anchor to dive into the crystalline waters of the Strait and learn the secrets of sailing! We'll observe Messina from an unusual perspective and we will discover its long history together. You don't have a moment to lose: book and live this unforgettable experience! The following itinerary is customizable:
