The moon slides up over the Ionian and the coastline of Taormina glows like a string of low lanterns. Onboard the MAXI RIB “Aliseo,” the sea smells of salt and warm stone as the skipper eases away from Marina Yachting Club and you settle into a private tasting: three premium Sicilian labels, fresh fruit and small snacks, all served while the shore drifts by.

The moon slides up over the Ionian and the coastline of Taormina glows like a string of low lanterns. Onboard the MAXI RIB “Aliseo,” the sea smells of salt and warm stone as the skipper eases away from Marina Yachting Club and you settle into a private tasting: three premium Sicilian labels, fresh fruit and small snacks, all served while the shore drifts by.
This stretch of Sicily carries Roman and Greek footnotes—Giardini Naxos is one of Sicily’s earliest Greek colonies—while the volcanic ingredients from nearby Mount Etna quietly shape the wines you’ll taste. Geologically, the coast is steep, with dark volcanic rock giving way to pebbled beaches; from the water you see terraced vineyards and cliffs that have watched centuries of trade and fishermen pass.
Culturally, evening cruises are part aperitivo, part maritime ritual here: locals celebrate food and good company, and the sea takes on a social role after sunset. Expect a relaxed pace—conversation, wine notes, and the occasional salt gust daring you to lean into the rail.
Practical guidance: the program lasts about 2.5 hours and is suitable for all fitness levels; meet at Marina Yachting Club in Giardini Naxos (near La Sirena restaurant). Bring a light windbreaker and non-slip shoes, hydrate beforehand, and refuse excess sun only during daytime trips—this one is often scheduled for sunset or night. If you have dietary restrictions or passport details, confirm them at booking; the operator requires passenger info. Small group, private RIB means limited capacity—book early to secure a preferred time slot.
