What we will do
The meeting is at 9.30 a.m. in Trapani. Here the skipper will welcome you and, after due introductions, you will board the boat that has been reserved for you.
Once you have reached Marettimo, you will begin the route that will lead you to discover the caves, which have special shapes and through whose fissures the sun's rays penetrate, creating wonderful plays of light. The first caves you will see are the Grotta del Cammello, the Grotta del Tuono and the Grotta della Pipa.
You will then make your first stop of about 15 to 20 minutes at the Spiaggia del Libano (Lebanon Beach ), where you can dive and soak in the crystal-clear waters. The second stop will be at Cala Bianca, an inlet where you can swim in the company of many small fish. In the morning you can also enjoy a tasty aperitif with chips and peanuts accompanied by a cool spritz.
You will then continue on to discover the Grotta Perciata, full of stalactites and stalagmites overlooking a dreamlike seabed, the Grotta della Ficaredda, where in the past a fig tree stood on top of the cave, the Grotta del Presepe and the Grotta degli Innamorati, where you can try to go from one cavity to another by swimming through the tunnels.
You will continue the tour of Marettimo's caves until you reach the Grotta della Bombarda (Bombard 's Cave) and conclude with a final stop at the Finocchio Marino, a very suggestive cove in which to take a last swim. Return to Trapani is expected around 18.00.
