Full description

Embark on an exciting 3-hour boat trip in the Salento. Sailing coast to coast, you will admire the wonderful coves and caves that characterise the southernmost part of the heel of Italy.

Departing from the port of Santa Maria di Leuca, you will first reach the Adriatic coast and then, reversing course, head towards the Ionian coast. You can dive into the crystal-clear waters of Puglia and sunbathe on board the boat.

The perfect excursion if you don't want to miss a single glimpse of the Salento Riviera!

What we will do

We will meet at the time selected during the booking process at the marina in Santa Maria di Leuca. Here we will meet the skipper and start embarking. When the entire group is on board, we will be ready to depart.

Initially we will sail up the Adriatic side , being enchanted by the amount of caves that have formed over time. Here we will have the opportunity to dive off the boat and bathe inside one of the caves, during a stop of about half an hour to discover breathtaking coves overlooking the sea.

Then we will get back on the boat and reverse course, heading towards the Ionian coast. Here, too, we will admire other coastal caves such as the Grotta Mesciu Scianni, named after a certain 'Master Gianni' who, according to legend, ventured there to find the stones to make his mosaics; the Grotta Fiume, famous for the presence of freshwater springs inside it; and the Grotta degli innamorati, whose shallow, sandy seabed allows one to walk in and out of the water to relax on enchanting little beaches. Of course, a second dip in the splendid Salento sea will not be missing.

Once all participants are back on board, we will finally return to the port of Santa Maria di Leuca. The experience will last approximately three hours .
