Full description
Dinghy tour to the moon? That's a bit of the feeling you'll get when you disembark at Linosa.
This small Mediterranean island is ready to welcome you with its colourful inlets, the nuances of the sea and its almost lunar landscapes of volcanic origin.
Set sail from Lampedusa and get ready to discover Linosa by land and dive into its most beautiful coves on afull-day excursion. With its 450 inhabitants, time seems to stand still in Linosa!
What we will do
The meeting point is Lampedusa (AG), 15 minutes before the time indicated in the booking phase.
Once on board the dinghy, we will begin our crossing that will take us from Lampedusa to Linosa in about 1 hour: during the journey, if we are lucky, we may even see dolphins and turtles among the waves!
Arriving at the old port of Linosa, we will disembark to explore this small volcanic island of just 450 inhabitants, which offers landscapes with a lunar atmosphere and a very clear sea.
Here, we can take a tour on our own, for example by hiring bicycles on site, or we can join a guided 2-hour land tour (optional), which will take us by minibus to discover the craters and volcanic landscapes of Linosa, with a swim stop at the Natural Pool.
At the end of the tour, we will return to the old port of Linosa for lunch, either packed or in an affiliated restaurant (not included). Between 14:00 and 14:30 we will depart on board the dinghy to admire Linosa from the sea and make 2 or 3 swimming stops.
Among the possible stops (which we will decide on the basis of weather and sea conditions) we will be able to stop at Cala dei fili, Baia del Conte, Cala Pozzolana di Ponenti or Grotta degli Innamorati.
Return to Lampedusa is expected at around 18:00, after 8 and a half hours of touring.
