Full description

If your idea of relaxation is diving among submerged wrecks, exploring mysterious caves and sunbathing on dreamy beaches... well, this is the perfect excursion for you!

Set sail from Marina di Campo on board a motorboat equipped with all comforts for a fantastic tour of the Island of Elba. You will explore the scenic Wreck of Pomonte, enjoy a dip on one of the beautiful beaches of the Costa del Sole and visit the magical Grotta Azzurra.

With a bit of luck, you'll be able to admire cute dolphins playing in the waves!

What we will do

The rendezvous is at 15.00 at the port of Marina di Campo, where the crew will welcome us and take us aboard the motorboat. Once all participants are seated on board, we will set sail at 15.30.

Our first bathroom stop will be at the Pomonte Wreck, an extraordinary dive site where the wreck of the merchant ship Elviscott is visible from the surface. During our 30-minute stop, we will be able to dive and admire the incredible marine habitat that has developed around the wreck.

Then we will head towards the Sunshine Coast, where we will make our second 30-minute bathing stop. Depending on wind and sea conditions, we will choose between the beautiful beaches of Cavoli, Seccheto and Fetovaia, each with its own unique characteristics and transparent waters.

We will then move on to the Blue Grotto, famous for its incredible play of light and spectacular colours. We will approach the cave by motorboat and stop for a third swimming stop where we will have the opportunity to swim to the small sandy beach inside the cave.

On the return trip we will go in search of dolphins, which are often sighted in this area thanks to the presence of the Pelagos Sanctuary, a marine protected area for cetaceans. With a bit of luck, we will be able to see these cute mammals doing acrobatics in the waves!

We will be back in Marina di Campo by 6.30 p.m., after a 3-hour excursion.
