Full description
Get ready to explore Salento from the tip... to the heel!
A 3-hour private dinghy tour is the best way to discover the Apulian coastline in great company: that of your loved ones. Sailing from the Ionian to the Adriatic , you can admire cliffs up to 30 metres high, emerald-green bays, caves, and even the heel of Italy.
And then enjoy typical Salento products on board. Shall we set off?
What we will do
The meeting point is Torre Vado, 20 minutes before the scheduled departure time. Here the skipper will be waiting for you, ready to welcome you on board for an exclusive 3-hour tour to share with friends or family.
Once you've started your engines, you'll sail through the Marina di San Gregorio, stopping to look at the splendid villa, once a coastal tower that once belonged to Mussolini, and the Marina di Felloniche, whose emerald green colour is perfect for a first dive!
You will resume sailing along the gradually rising cliffs and admire the fabulous caves of the Ionian Sea near Santa Maria di Leuca. From here you will reach Punta Ristola, the famous heel of Italy, and Punta Meliso, where the coastline reaches peaks of around 30 metres in height!
From the heel you will proceed to explore the Adriatic side of Salento, for another swimming stop. Between dips, you will have the chance to enjoy a rich aperitif of typical Salento delicacies with baked goods, prosecco, lemon tea and water.
After the aperitif, you will return to the harbour after a 3-hour excursion.
