Full description
Feel like seeing what lies beneath the surface, but without tanks or a patent?
Hop on board, we're off for a sea trip in the heart of Salento! You will reach the site of interest with the diving group, then off you go: fins, mask and snorkel for afull hour of snorkelling on your own, surrounded by the beauty of the Otranto coastline.
The seabed is shallow and visibility excellent: everything you need to enjoy the nature of the Mediterranean up close!
What we will do
The appointment is at 15:00 at the meeting point in Otranto (LE). We will be welcomed by the diving staff, who will provide us withsnorkelling equipment and all the necessary information.
After a brief preparation on land, we will walk (about 100 metres) to board the dinghy together with the group of divers with whom we will share the boat.
We will reach one of the most fascinating bays in the surroundings - such as Taglio delle Orte or other protected areas - where we will have about anhour to snorkel freely, at our own pace and without a guide. The shallow waters and transparency of the water will allow us to closely observe the marine vegetation and typical Mediterranean fish.
The activity will take place at the same time as the diving group's dives, but in complete autonomy.
At the end of the experience, we will return by rubber dinghy to the starting point. The experience will last a total of about 2 hours and 15 minutes.

The experience is suitable from 8 years of age; children under 15 must be accompanied by an adult on the raft.
