Full description
If you love discovering ancient legends, this tour is for you! Climb aboard a motor boat and set out to discover the wonders of the Salento coastline and the history they are named after.
Admire Roca Vecchia, the Grotta della Poesia, the Spiaggia dell'Orso, Torre Sant'Andrea and many other unique sights on a 2½-hour excursion during which you can also stop for a swim and some snorkelling.
While you relax in this paradise steeped in seafaring stories and legends, you can sample the snacks on offer and be enchanted by the view of the beautiful surrounding landscape.
What we will do
Departure is from San Foca(LE), one of the marinas of Melendugno. Once everyone has boarded the boat, we will have an introductory briefing of about 10 minutes and then begin our navigation along the Salento coastline.
We will pass through the archaeological area of Roca Vecchia and the Grotta della Poesia, a natural open-air swimming pool. During the navigation we will stop for about 30 minutes in wonderful inlets where it will be possible to swim and admire the beauty of this stretch of coastline.
We will then head towards Torre dell'Orso, where we will be able to admire Le Due Sorelle, two stacks that emerge majestically from the sea, Spiaggia dell'Orso with its fine golden sand, and the various sea caves that we will be able to explore by swimming for 30 minutes.
Continuing south for two miles, we will find the splendid Torre Sant'Andrea, a place where nature displays its majesty through the famous stacks and enchanting bays.
Finally, we will reach Conca Specchiulla, a hidden gem known for its shallow waters and small secret coves. For another 30 minutes, we will alternate between diving from the boat and relaxing moments where we can sunbathe, listen to the guide's stories, and enjoy the snacks and drinks we will be offered (included).
The excursion lasts approximately two and a half hours.
