What we will do
Departure is at 10 a.m. in Porto Ercole, where the skipper will welcome you on board the comfortable 12-person dinghy Libera. Once all participants have boarded the dinghy, we will leave the harbour behind as we head towards the enchanting Giglio Island.
We will reach the island in about 40 minutes and immediately admire the picturesque village of Giglio Porto, with its pastel houses and lively maritime atmosphere.
Our first stop will be at the Spiaggia delle Cannelle, one of the island's gems, where the turquoise sea invites for a refreshing dip. After an hour of relaxation and snorkelling to discover the seabed, we will depart for our next destination: Le Caldane.
We will stay at the Le Caldane beach for about an hour or so between sunbathing and swimming in the calm waters before moving on to the Campese beach, located below the striking Faraglioni rocks.
The last stop on our tour will be La Zampa del Gatto, a more isolated and quiet beach. The return to Porto Ercole is scheduled at around 16.00 for a total duration of about 6 hours.
