- Ustica - The meeting will take place at Cala Sidoti, inside the “A” zone of the first Marine Protected Area in Italy. The area is easy to access and is characterized by a similar beach made up of small pearly gray basalt grains that do not stick to the costume. Equipped with a mask and snorkel we will enter its very shallow waters where you can touch the surface and it is not necessary to dive deep; we will therefore observe the very rich fauna and flora at the surface of the water where we will discover the dens of the Groupers, expanses of posidonia where the salemas sneak in, shallow waters full of sea urchins and many other species. We will also discover different social behaviors and clever survival strategies, and we will understand that fish are much more intelligent than they say :). For those who do not have masks, you can rent them for €2.50 each.

World Heritage Site - Unforgettable experience!!
Vittorio is part of the marine and naturalistic heritage of the island, he lives in profound symbiosis with his native land and transmits to the tourist the irrepressible energy that this condition produces in him.
The rest is done by the uncontaminated nature of the island and its seabed, the spectacle of marine fauna and flora..

It opened up a world for me!!! - I, terrified of the water, participated in the snorkeling experience... Vittorio assured me of the lifebuoy, and made me discover what's under the water... so much to take taste... fish, starfish, sea urchins... a world that I never imagined to see live... explaining of each species the characteristics...
Nice person, prepared, helpful, who loves his island and knows how to transmit this love in all his excursion proposals.
I plan to return to try the other excursions.

The best memory - Ustica is a place that takes your breath away as soon as you get off the catamaran. Yet its thousand wonders would remain partly hidden if not revealed by those who live them every day. All outings with Vittorio are real voyages of discovery in which you feel like little explorers to adventure; and he is the most fun and prepared head explorer there is.
Give yourself this gift, discover the island with those who love it deeply, it will be the best memory.

Exciting experience - Snorkeling in the sea of Ustica is one of the essential activities for those who visit the island, to make this experience exciting, in addition to the deep beauty of the sea, is the skillful guide of Vittorio who with great passion and preparation made us discover the mysteries and the charm of the Justicese sea.

Visit the wonders! - For the second time we decide to return to Ustica but this time with the aim of living it 100% and admiring all its beauties and not only in part. We decide to rely on a guide and choose Vittorio. Never has a choice been more apt! An extremely prepared, nice, welcoming person, who makes you feel at home despite not knowing you, with a particular energy that you can not help but get involved! To anyone who lands on the island we strongly recommend to turn to him for wonderful sea and land experiences! Thanks for everything Vittorio! Vincenzo and Teresa ❤

Tour with Vittorio - Ustica without Vittorio's passionate explanations would not be so spectacular. We discovered it through its geological, submarine and stellar tour. We did not have time for nature and archaeological guidance, but I highly recommend doing them all. Vittorio is TOP! All his trips end at sunset... 😍

Nice experience - Nice experience also for me that I am unfamiliar with water. Vittorio very prepared and funny. I learned things about marine life that I did not know and that help pay more attention to the beauty of our planet.
An experience that I recommend

Ustica with an usticese - In our few days in Ustica we participated in five excursions all interesting and also fun. Vittorio passed on his passion for the island, meeting him made us discover sides of Ustica that we would never see alone and they left us wanting to return

The 👑 of Ustica! - Vittorio aka is living proof that if you turn passion into work you will not work for life.
Usticese real, with its excursions helps make you a worse than expected return from vacation with increased doses of psychotropic drugs. I highly recommend not buying his experiences if you do not want to try to stay on the island for life.
Just love and respect.
Don't buy an excursion, buy them ALL
