How much do boat cruises in Syracuse cost?

Prices sit in the mid-range for Sicily, and the main variable is duration and extras rather than quality. Short one-hour Ortigia and sea cave tours are the most economical, while two-hour trips that add snorkeling, swimming or Prosecco cost more. Every option is priced per person, and booking online in advance usually beats turning up at the port.

About Syracuse

Syracuse's coastline is the reason so many travellers end up on the water here: the limestone cliffs and hidden grottoes of Ortigia and the Plemmirio reserve are only fully visible from the sea. A short cruise out of the harbour takes you past the island's seaward walls and into caves lit turquoise from below, as on the Syracuse: Ortigia Island and Sea Caves Boat Tour, while longer outings add swimming stops and a glass of Prosecco, like the Syracuse: 2-Hour Boat Tour with Prosecco and Snorkeling.

Frequently asked questions

Much of Syracuse's coast is inaccessible on foot. The sea caves carved into the cliffs below Ortigia and the Plemmirio marine reserve can only be entered by boat, and the water itself is the attraction: clear enough for snorkeling and glass-bottom viewing. Cruises range from one-hour loops around Ortigia to two-hour trips that include a swim stop.
