3 things you can't miss about Puglia: trulli, taralli and this 3-hour boat trip from Santa Maria di Leuca!
Sail along the Adriatic and Ionian sides of the coast to discover the marvellous caves. Each one has a name and a story to discover! The tour includes four swimming stops during which you can explore the caves by swimming and snorkelling. During one of these you can also enjoy a delicious aperitif of typical Apulian products.
It will be a unique experience of diving, fun and beautiful landscapes!
What we will do
We will meet at the meeting point in Santa Maria di Leuca (LE), where the organisers of the activity will be waiting for us. After an initial welcome, we will board the boat, a 6 m Cayman boat , and set off on our excursion.
The itinerary will include sailing along both the Adriatic and Ionian sides. Proceeding along the Adriatic side we will reach the Terradico Cave, also known as the Cave of the Indians and famous for its triangular shape.
Continuing along this route, we will encounter the Grotta dei Gabbiani, where water infiltration has corroded the rock and formed stalactites, and the Grotta Verdusella. Finally, we will go as far as the Grotta del Soffio (Breath Cave) and the famous Grotta della Vora (Vora Cave), inside which various plays of light are created.
Then, sailing along the Ionian side , we will reach well-known destinations such as the Grotta del Diavolo, the Grotta delle Tre Porte and the Grotta dei Giganti. The first one, for example, has become famous because of the sinister noises of the sea coming from inside, which inspired its name. Finally, we will reach the Cave of the Dragon, admire the rock formations that resemble the features of this mythological animal, and enjoy an aperitif (included) of taralli, chips, fresh fruit, soft drinks and typical Apulian prosecco.
During the excursion we will stop 4 times to swim in the sea and explore the waters of the area by snorkelling! 2 stops will be on the Adriatic side, at the Grotta del Soffio and the Grotta della Vora, while the other 2 will be on the Ionian side, near the Grotta delle Tre Porte and some nearby caves. Each stop will last approximately 15 minutes.
The activity, including the above-mentioned stops, will last a total of 3 hours.
