Join us on an unforgettable excursion to discover Dino Island, the largest of the two Calabrian islands. Our tour begins by cruising along the enchanting Blue Grotto, renowned for its crystal-clear waters that reflect magnificent plays of light. We will then proceed to the Lion's Grotto, where you can marvel at a lion-shaped rock that seems to guard the entrance, and the majestic headland of the island, located on its western side.
As we navigate along the northern side of the island, you'll have the opportunity to discover numerous coves, including the picturesque Monk’s Grotto. Here, water erosion has sculpted fascinating shapes into the rock, all framed by lush vegetation composed of holm oaks, myrtle, dwarf palms, and delicate Palinuro primroses.
Our journey continues towards the coast of San Nicola Arcella, where you can admire the Arcomagno, an impressive natural arch that frames a fairy-tale bay, creating a breathtaking scene. We will also pass by the natural harbor of San Nicola Arcella and the historic Crawford Tower, named in honor of the writer Francis Marion Crawford, who spent long periods there, and Dino Tower, now transformed into a cozy B&B.
During the tour, we will explore Zuongolo Bay, Francidormo's Ear, Punta Dino, and Carpino Bay, which marks the border between San Nicola Arcella and Scalea. Finally, we will make a 45-minute stop at the beautiful Saracen Bay, where you can relax and enjoy the stunning surroundings.
Prepare to experience a unique journey immersed in the nature and history of these fascinating places!
