Full description
You know when you see those dreamy cliffs on social media and think, ‘I want to be there right now! ’? Get your swimwear ready – we’re about to make that happen!
Set sail with us on a boat trip around Salento, departing from Marina di Andrano. Accompanied by a skipper, you’ll spend three hours exploring stunning spots such as the Grotta Zinzulusa and the Grotta Azzurra, with the chance to take a dip in the crystal-clear waters off Porto Miggiano.
We look forward to seeing you on board!
What we will do
Please arrive 10 minutes before the time stated at the meeting point in Marina di Andrano (LE). The skipper will be there to welcome us and take us on our boat trip.
Once on board, we’ll set sail along the Salento coast. As we sail, the skipper will give us a detailed explanation of the sights we pass. Viewing the coastline from the sea, we’ll see some of the area’s most famous natural caves from the outside, including the Grotta Azzurra, the Grotta Palombara and the Grotta Romanelli.
Our itinerary will continue towards the spectacular Grotta Zinzulusa and the Grotta Triare, offering us unique views of the rocky cliffs plunging into the waves. We’ll admire all the caves from the boat, giving us the chance to take photos of the coastline.
There’ll also be plenty of time for relaxation and fun in the water. We’ll make our first stop for a swim in the stunning bay of Porto Miggiano, followed by a second dip at a spot chosen by the skipper. The duration of the stops will vary depending on the weather and sea conditions on the day.
Finally, we’ll turn back to return to the original meeting point. The trip will last a total of 3 hours.
