Full description
At Porto Selvaggio, in the heart of Salento, a kayaking adventure awaits you as you discover one of the most fascinating stretches of coastline in Italy!
In the company of an expert guide, you will paddle through marvellous natural caves and places steeped in history while listening to tales of bygone eras.
And just when you think you have seen it all... a stop at a natural spring will make the experience even more magical!
What we will do
We will meet in Nardò (LE), at the time selected when booking. Our guide will welcome us with a briefing on paddling techniques and safety rules. After settling into our kayaks, we will set off on our adventure!
We will paddle along an approximately 7-km route to discover the beautiful coastline of Porto Selvaggio. Along the way, we will admire the majestic Torre dell'Alto, an ancient watchtower dominating the seascape.
We will enter the fascinating Grotta Verde, two natural wonders set among the cliffs. We will also observe from the outside the famous Grotta del Cavallo, a site of great historical and archaeological value.
Arriving at the bay of Porto Selvaggio, we will take a relaxing break to refresh ourselves in the natural springs and, for those who wish, enjoy a coffee or an ice cream by the sea.
After recharging our batteries, we will return to our starting point in Nardò, for a total of about three hours of touring.
