Trapani to Catania
The trip
A 7-night skippered sailing cruise from Trapani to Catania, calling at Mazara del Vallo, Sciacca, Agrigento, Isola delle Correnti, Capo Passero, Marzamemi & Siracusa.
One of Italy’s great fishing ports, with a North African-style kasbah and the bronze Dancing Satyr found at sea.
A spa town of ceramics and fishermen, terraced above a busy harbour.
Days are spent sailing, swimming in quiet bays and discovering harbour towns; evenings at anchor or in port. The route is a guide: the skipper adapts it to the weather and sea conditions.
