What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the indicated time at the meeting point in Otranto (LE) . Awaiting us will be the skipper who will accompany us on our excursion. After checking in and a briefing, we will take our places on board to start sailing northwards up the Adriatic coast.
We will sail along a coastline dotted with high cliffs, admiring iconic sites such as Grotta Monaca and La Castellana. Our route will take us to Baia Mulino d'Acqua, a natural amphitheatre where sandstone cliffs plunge into a turquoise sea. Here we can dive in for the first of the 2 or 3 swimming stops planned, each lasting around 20-30 minutes, taking advantage of the swimming aids available on board.
We will then continue on to the Baia dei Turchi, a jewel of golden sand and pine forests. We will drop anchor for another regenerating dive in calm waters, while the skipper will start preparing a delicious Salento aperitif (included) . We will enjoy typical local products accompanied by native wines and beers, as well as cool drinks, while relaxing on the boat's comfortable cushions.
If conditions allow, navigation will also touch Baia Murrune and the Alimini area, always choosing the most sheltered bays.
Finally, we will reverse course to return to the starting point. The activity will last a total of 3 hours.
