Full description
Do you know what'zinzuli' are?
And you won't know until you discover the history of the Grotta della Zinzulusa, an unmissable stop on our 2-hour boat trip. In the company of our skipper you will sail along the Salento coastline, visiting the scenic sea caves that dot it.
What we will do
The rendezvous is 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Castro Marina, a hamlet of Castro (LE). Welcoming us on board will be the skipper who will accompany us on this adventure in the sea of Salento!
Once all passengers have been boarded, we will set sail to discover the Adriatic coast. We will explore the scenic sea caves that dot it, accessing with the boat the Grotta degli Innamorati, Grotta delle Gemelle, Grotta Palombara and Grotta Azzurra. We will also pay an external visit to the legendary Grotta della Zinzulusa, which will fascinate us with its magical history.
We will then head for the Bay of Porto Miggiano, for an initial 20-minute swim. We will continue by visiting outside the Romanelli Cave, considered the "pearl of Salento prehistory".
We will finally return to the meeting point. The experience will last a total of 2 hours.
