The cruise which takes place along the coast of Calabria is thematically dedicated to the discovery of some of the most important colonies of Magna Graecia. Following the same route that more than 2500 years ago followed the ancient settlers who came from Greece, it will be possible to visit Crotone, Caulonia, Locri, Reggio Calabria and also a series of other sites of historical and cultural interest. The cruise wants to be a tribute to the intimate and complex relationship that the Magna Graecia civilization had from the beginning with the sea and from which it drew strength and prosperity.
