About Messina

Messina's harbour sits at the meeting point of Sicily and Calabria, and its boat trips pair that strait-side scenery with Sicilian food and drink served on board. The Giardini Naxos: Isola Bella and Grottos Cruise with Aperitif keeps things simple with an aperitif on the water, while the Messina Cruise Excursion: Scilla & Capo Peloro Boat Experience runs longer and takes in both shores of the strait.

Frequently asked questions

The setting does most of the work: you eat and drink while moving through the Strait of Messina, with the Calabrian coast on one side and Sicily on the other. Several departures build the tasting into the route itself, such as the Isola Bella and Grottos cruise with aperitif, so the food is part of the itinerary rather than an add-on.
