Full description
Lu sole che ti scalda, lu mare che ti culla, lu ientu che ti scompigliare i capelli. The Salento is pure magic!
Get ready to savour every moment with a 3½-hour boat tour of Gallipoli, which will take you to the Island of Sant'Andrea.
On board, you will be delighted by your skipper's stories and, above all, the typical Salento aperitif with taralli and frisa!
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Gallipoli (LE) . Awaiting us will be the skipper who will accompany us on our boat trip along the Salento coastline!
Once we leave the port, we will head for the Lido San Giovanni area, where we will make an initial stop of about an hour to dive and snorkel, using the equipment available on board. While sailing, we will listen to stories and curiosities about the city told by the skipper, who knows the city and its sea better than his own pocket.
We will then continue on to the island of St Andrew, recognisable by its 45-metre-high 19th-century lighthouse. We will stop near the island for a break of about an hour, ideal for enjoying the sun in total relaxation or taking a new swim. If we have brought our playlist, we can plug it into the on-board speaker to create the perfect soundtrack!
It is during this stop that a typical Apulian aperitif will be served: we will enjoy crunchy taralli , the classic Salento frisa topped with local cherry tomatoes, and fresh watermelon. Everything will be accompanied by water and a glass of prosecco to toast together to the beauty of the Gallipoli coastline.
Finally, we will set off on our return journey admiring the outline of the old town of Gallipoli. The activity will last a total of 3½ hours.
