4 Boat Trips in Taormina Worth Flying For

1.Boat Tour with Aperitif on Isola Bella

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 647 reviews Our pick

Cruise Taormina’s coast from Giardini Naxos, enter the Blue Grotto, swim at Isola Bella, and enjoy fruit, almond sweets, and prosecco.

“Don't listen to the bad reviews on here - boat tour was very good value for money! We got the boat depicted in pic 3. We had 9 people on the boat and was more than enough room. Our guide Georgio was really lovely and actually asked the group collectively if we'd rather swim more or sight see more. We picked to swim more but I still feel we were able to see so much of the coast and swam for about 30-40 minutes which was more than enough. We were provided with nice biscuits and Prosecco and was told about the history of the coastline. Only thing is you…”

The lagoon area is beautiful for snorkelling, the water was beautifully warm and the area and views are incredible. Highly recommended”

3.Sunset Boat Tour with Dolphin Watching & Aperitif

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 454 reviews · from $118Top rated

Review of Taormina’s sunset boat tour with dolphins, caves, snorkeling, aperitif, and a small group aboard Blue Diamond.

“Amazing in every way, the couple who did the tour were so lovely, very accommodating, told us about the coast line we were sailing along, showed us a couple of beautiful caves, allowed us to swim off the boat, some lovely Prosecco and nibbles after a swim and then out to find the dolphins, which did not disappoint! We saw so many, swimming all around the boat and jumping infront of us, a truly unforgettable experience! We even finished with a speed back to the harbour which was great fun! Thank you! Highly recommend!”

4.Lipari and Vulcano Mini Cruise Aeolian Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 281 reviews · 1 day · from $106

Cruise from Taormina to Lipari and Vulcano for black beaches, island towns, volcanic views, and a full day on the Aeolian Sea.

“Our guide, Elizabeth, was excellent and highly recommended. The tour was great but the very early start was difficult. Our hotel was at the bottom of Taormina, and the cable cars do not run before 8am so we were forced to hire a taxi to arrive at the pick up point on time. Frustratingly, there were several pick ups at the start of the trip and the coach actually drove past our hotel. Could a pick up be arranged for the bottom of the cable cars?”
