What we will do
We will meet at the time selected during the booking process at the port of Monopoli. Opposite stands the majestic 16th-century Castle of Charles V. From here we will depart by boat in the direction of Cala di Porta Vecchia, which skirts the 16th-century walls protecting Monopoli.
We will then head towards Polignano a Mare, admiring the Scoglio dell'Eremita (Hermit's Rock), Grotta Palazzese and the picturesque beach of Lama Monachile.
During the approximately one-and-a-half-hour trip, there will be a short bathing stop of about 10 minutes in one of the places visited. The choice may vary depending on sea conditions and wind direction.
Once back on board, we will be offered an aperitif with drinks (prosecco, soft drink or orange juice) and a taste of Apulian specialities (snacks and taralli). Afterwards, we will return to the starting point in Monopoli.
The total duration of the experience is 2 hours.
