Full description

It is said that, in ancient times, sailors sought advice from theoracle of Capo Vaticano, the imposing promontory overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. Today, there is no need to consult any oracle to discover the beauty of this place!

Set off from Tropea for an exciting half-day boat tour: explore the Grotta dello Scheletro (skeleton cave), dive into the crystal-clear waters of Capo Vaticano and snorkel in the picturesque Riaci Bay. Finally, enjoy an aperitif of Calabrian delicacies such as salami and 'nduja.

What we will do

We will meet at the meeting point in Tropea (VV), where our skipper will be waiting for us . After an initial welcome and boarding, we will be ready to set off on our excursion!

We will sail along the Costa degli Dei discovering beautiful beaches and stopping at its most iconic spots. The first stop will be at the Sanctuary of the Island of Tropea, a sandstone cliff that houses the religious monument and is recognised as the symbol of Tropea.

We will then continue on to the Grotta dello Skeletro (Cave of the Skeleton), so called because of the whitish and 'cadaverous' hues that the body of those who enter it takes on due to a play of light.

The next stops will be the magnificent Riaci Bay, which will enchant us with its azure waters, and the remains of theancient Roman port off Formicoli.

Finally, we will conclude the tour with a stop near the famous Capo Vaticano and return to the port of departure. Before returning, however, a delicious aperitif (included) with typical Calabrian products such as salami and 'nduja and alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks will be offered.

During the experience, we will stop for about 30 minutes at each of these stops and can refresh ourselves with a swim, relax in the sun, enjoy the beautiful surroundings or do some snorkelling. The area has a seabed with rich vegetation and all kinds of colourful fish.

The activity will last a total of 3 hours.
