Tofino Expeditions

Celebrating 35 Years of Award Winning Sea Kayaking Tours

Overview

In Sicily, we’ll paddle in the Ionian waters of Odysseus, Homer’s epic hero, kayak into picture-perfect villages, along fortress walls of ancient cities and land in sandy coves as we explore Sicily’s legendary eastern coast. With carefully curated paddling routes from the islands of the Cyclops to magnificent Ortigia to storied Capo Passero to Taormina’s exquisite Isola Bella, this is a true kayak odyssey.
Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean and, without a doubt, the most historically eventful. Rugged and beautiful, it is an island of wildflower-strewn meadows, sun-drenched bays, and moonscape-like highlands. Bounded by the clear, warm waters of the Tyrrhenian and Ionian Seas, Sicily holds the ancient ruins of 12 civilizations and the tallest active volcano in Europe.
