Full description
A world of legends awaits!
Prepare paddle and wonder for akayaking adventure among the caves of Santa Maria di Leuca, in the heart of Salento.
During the 3-hour tour with your guide, you will see the Grotta del Drago (Dragon's Cave), the Grotta degli Innamorati (Lovers' Cave), the Grotta della Cattedrale (Cathedral Cave ) and the Tre Porte (Three Gates): what story is behind each one?
What we will do
The meeting point is 15 minutes before the indicated time at Marina di Felloniche (LE).
We will be welcomed by the guide, ready to provide us with everything we need and to tell us how the excursion will unfold. After a short briefing of about 10 minutes, we will be ready to go!
We will climb into single or double kayaks and start paddling along the southernmost tip of Salento. The first stop will be at the Grotta del Drago, famous for its incredible shapes carved into the rock that resemble the heads of mythological reptiles.
We will continue on to the Grotta degli Innamorati, where we can dive into the cool spring of fresh water hidden inside. We will then push on to the Cathedral Cave, a majestic place with imposing columns of stalactites.
But the most iconic moment will be the arrival at the Grotta delle Tre Porte, a masterpiece of nature that looks like the entrance to a secret kingdom. Finally, a passage through the mysterious Devil's Cave will add a touch of thrill to the return journey.
We will then return to the starting point. The activity will last a total of 3 hours.
