What to expect

Ustica Island is 36 marine miles from Palermo, so you will need to get the hydrofoil to reach the island.

Purchase your ticket for the early morning hydrofoil (check timetable on website www.libertylines.it) which will bring you to Ustica in 1,5 hours.

You will meet us at the embarking dock at 09:00 - ready to go for the One Day Snorkeling  Excursion. The equipment you asked for will be ready on board for you.

You will embark aboard and go for the snorkeling guided tour, which will take place at some point of day, depending on the schedule . We might stay on board for the whole trip or decide to come back to the port and go for the second dive site later, depending on sea conditions or other logistics. 

 you'll be back at the harbour at about 14:00 and eventually have time for extra refreshment at the bar before leaving. 

Afternoon hydrofoil will bring you back to Palermo - the last one.  (check timetable on website www.libertylines.it)

Suggestion: bring a snack or packet lunch with you, the day can be long at sea!
