Palermo: Boat Tour to Mondello - Isola delle Femmine + drink
Discover the magnificent coastline around Palermo with this boat tour to the Isola delle Femmine. Enjoy a stop for swimming and snorkeling in the crystal-clear waters of the Gulf of Mondello, and enjoy an aperitif on board with snacks and drink. Start your tour from the Florio tuna factory, not far from the Arenella beach. Pass along the coast of Arenella and below Mount Pellegrino, until reaching the very famous Gulf of Mondello Beach, which still hosts the Ancient bathing establishment of Mondello, one of the architectural works in style Art Nouveau most beautiful in Europe, born in the early twentieth century. Stop in the Gulf of Mondello for about an hour, during which you can swim and snorkel in the very clear waters of this area. Then head towards the Capo Gallo Nature Reserve, very important for the biodiversity of this area. Admire an imposing promontory on which stands a Bourbon lighthouse, and then dive back into the water to cool off. After passing Capo Gallo, find the beautiful Oil Cave, where you will stop for another swim and admire the beauty of the cave from inside. Pass in front of Sferracavallo and reach the Island of Women where you will stop for another swim of about an hour, a stopover for migratory birds on their flight between Africa and Europe and equally rich in underwater life. At this stage, enjoy an aperitif with a drink accompanied by some salty snacks and more. Then we will return to the starting point. From mid-September due to the shorter days, the tour schedules will be adjusted to ensure the best possible experience for our customers. Starting from mid-September, the tour will take place once a day, with a total duration of 5 hours, from 10:00 AM to 3:00 PM and we will add one more stop with about 30 minutes at the Grotta della Regina. Here, you will have the opportunity to explore the cave and, for those who wish, to dive off the cliff.
