What are you waiting for to set sail?
What we will do
The excursion will depart from the marina of Maratea at the time chosen during the booking process. Here, I will be waiting for you on board my boat to take you on this beautiful "Tour of the Nostromo", an experience tailor-made for you and your travelling companions.
On board, you will have the opportunity to fully customise your itinerary. You will receive an interactive digital map that will allow each participant to view the coastal area and choose the places to visit.
Depending on the requests of the group, we will be able to make two types of stops: 'Swim stops', i.e. 30-minute swimming and snorkelling stops in beautiful coastal caves and coves, or 'Archeo stops', snorkelling experiences with an underwater archaeologist in search of underwater structures or at local historical-archaeological ruins.
During our tour we will have time for 3 stops to choose from:
- "Swim stop": Secca della Giumenta, Secca di Castrocucco, Falesia di Acquafredda, Baia di Venere, Grotta Azzurra, Grotta Delle Monache, Grotta della Sciabella;
- "Archeo stop": Santo Janni Island, Calicastro, La Secca, Punta Caina, Matrella Island.
It will be anincredible adventure between history and nature that will let us discover the best the Basilicata coast has to offer.
At the end of our excursion we will return to the port of Maratea. The activity will last a total of 3 hours.
