Strait of Messina: Capo Peloro, Scilla, and Chianalea Dinghy Tour

Experience the Straits of Messina by zodiac boat from Messina, spotting feluccas fishing for swordfish, to Capo Peloro, Scilla and Chianalea, the Venice of the South, with stops for swimming and relaxation.

Enjoy an exclusive experience combining the sea, tradition, and breathtaking landscapes with our dinghy excursion between Sicily and Calabria. We will depart directly from the harbor of Messina, where you will board to begin a unique adventure in the spectacular scenery of the Strait of Messina. As you sail, you'll be able to see one of the most authentic shows in the Mediterranean: traditional swordfish fishing with the characteristic feluccas, historic boats that make this stretch of sea even more fascinating. We will continue towards Cape Peloro, the most extreme point of Sicily, where you can admire the majestic pillar and be amazed by the meeting of two seas and the currents that are unique in the world. We will then cross the Strait in the direction of Scilla to reach the charming village of Chianalea, known as "the Venice of the South". Here, you'll have free time to stroll among the houses directly overlooking the sea, take unforgettable photos, and immerse yourself in the authentic atmosphere of an ancient fishing village. You can choose how to make the most of your stop: indulge in a fresh seafood lunch in one of the characteristic stilt houses on the sea, enjoy a delicious swordfish sandwich a few steps from the harbor, or relax on the beautiful Scilla beach, which is easily accessible and has equipped beach facilities. A perfect excursion for those who want to discover the best of the Strait in just a few hours: tradition, nature, flavors, and unforgettable views.
