Boat Tours between the Costa Viola and the Costa degli Dei
An unforgettable experience among hidden beaches, caves and crystal-clear waters
Nature
Set sail for an exclusive boat tour along two of Calabria's most fascinating coastlines: the Costa Viola and the Costa degli Dei. A unique experience between Scilla and Tropea, designed for those seeking the charm of the sea, relaxation and spectacular views, far from the crowds.
The journey begins in Scilla, where you can admire and experience the Spiaggia delle Sirene (Mermaid Beach), swimming under the historic Ruffo Castle. From there, it's on to Bagnara Calabra, for a dip in the deep blue waters of the Costa Viola.
Sailing along the cliffs, we will discover rocky canyons, secret coves and beaches accessible only by sea, such as the splendid Cala Janculla, with its famous central rock. A little further on, the Grotta delle Sirene (Mermaids' Cave) awaits us, where it will be possible to swim and explore its crystal-clear seabed.
The journey continues towards the spectacular Scoglio dell'Ulivo (Olive Tree Rock), the symbol of the Palmi coastline: a rocky islet a few metres from the shore, on the top of which grows a centuries-old olive tree, the protagonist of ancient legends.
Continuing northwards, we will reach the beginning of the Costa degli Dei and the extraordinary promontory of Capo Vaticano, where it will be possible to swim in transparent waters above the seabed of white sand. With a bit of luck, you might even spot dolphins along the way.
Among the stops on this extraordinary itinerary are the Baia di Grotticella (Grotticella Bay), the Grotta del Cantante (Singer Cave), the Spiaggetta degli Ziti, the Praja di Fuoco, the Grotta dello Scheletro (Skeleton Cave) and the spectacular Isola Bella.
At the end of the day, during the return voyage that will last about 70 minutes, it will be the sunset that will accompany us. The spectacle will be incomparable: the Aeolian Islands silhouetted on our right crossed by the sun, in front of us Sicily and on the left the Calabrian coast fading into the colours of twilight.
At the end of the tour, a delicious aperitif of typical products and local wines will be served on board to celebrate an authentic and unforgettable experience.
The cost of the tour is €150.00 per person, with an aperitif included on board, prepared with local products and wines.
