What we will do
From the tourist port of Maratea we will set sail at 10.00 am for our 'Captain's Tour' that will take us to discover the wonders of the Basilicata coastline .
Our itinerary, of approximately 12 nautical miles, will be fully customised to suit the needs of your group. You will be able to choose which places to visit and at which sites to stop during the tour, displaying all the possibilities on an interactive map.
The special feature of this excursion is also the possibility of choosing between two types of stops, 'Swim stops' and 'Archeo stops'. The former will allow us to swim and snorkel at some of the most beautiful spots on the coast: Secca della Giumenta, Secca di Castrocucco, Falesia di Acquafredda, Baia di Venere, Grotta Azzurra, Grotta Delle Monache and Grotta della Sciabella.
Choosing the 'Archeo-stops', on the other hand, we will be able to snorkel together with an underwater archaeologist who will point out the spots where there are underwater structures worth admiring. From the island of Santo Janni, to Calicastro, via La Secca, Punta Caina and the island of Matrella, the sea overflows with wonders!
In addition to the stops (which may vary from 6 to 8), during the day there will be a rich brunch to enjoy on board with typical local products and sparkling wine.
We will return to the port of Maratea at around 17.00.
In total, the excursion will last 7 hours.
