Discover Puglia’s most picturesque landscapes with a relaxing boat tour

With as much as 865 km of coastline, Apulia is a true wealth of beauty. The coastline alternates between sandy beaches and rocky, jagged stretches. The Gargano area in northern Apulia is characterized by white cliffs that plunge into the azure sea, creating a striking contrast of colors, complemented by bright green vegetation. Moving down the coast of Salento, you encounter caves and bays with transparent water that bring out the clarity of the seabed. Impossible to resist the urge to take a dive from the boat!

Boat tours in Salento: sea, aperitifs and fun

Salento needs no introduction. It is one of the most popular resorts in Puglia and is taken by storm every summer by tourists from all over Italy. Gallipoli and Porto Cesareo are famous among young people looking for fun, but also among lovers of kitesurfing and other water sports. Those on the Ionian side of Salento are strongly advised to book an apéritif on-board and enjoy a magnificent sunset over the sea.

Boat tours: visit the caves of Santa Maria di Leuca

Located at the tip of the Salento peninsula, Santa Maria di Leuca is one of the region’s most popular tourist resorts. Visiting its coasts by boat, both on the Ionian and Adriatic sides, you encounter numerous sea caves of legendary charm. The Grotta del Soffio is famous for the play of light and the vivid hues of the water, but Santa Maria di Leuca’s other caves are no less impressive. Choose one of the many boat tours to Leuca’s caves and get lost among the colors and beauty of these natural ravines.

Boat tours in Polignano a Mare

Polignano a Mare is another location famous for its caves. The quaint Apulian village is literally set in rock, and there are dozens of natural cavities in its surroundings. A guided tour of Polignano’s sea caves is an experience that allows you to immerse yourself in history, nature and legend. Pairing a boat tour with a tasting of typical Apulian products is absolutely recommended.

How much does a boat tour in Puglia cost?

Prices for boat tours in Apulia vary according to departure location and duration. The average price for a 2-hour boat tour is around 30 euros per person. A tour with included lunch or aperitif costs 50 to 80 euros per person. Private boat rentals, on the other hand, start at 250 euros.

Celebrate a special event with a private boat tour

A boat tour is ideal for celebrating a special event such as a bachelor/bachelorette party in style. For these kinds of occasions, a private boat can be rented and all kinds of activities can be organized, such as lunches, dinners, disco parties or fishing trips. Apulia’s sea will be a spectacular setting for your unforgettable moments! What are you waiting for?

09 Jun 2026 | 4-hour boat tour of the two seas of Santa Maria di Leuca with aperitif

An experience that exceeded all expectations! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

We chose a boat excursion that left from Torre Vado and headed along the spectacular Salento coast to beyond Santa Maria di Leuca. It was a wonderful itinerary, with fascinating caves, breathtaking views and swimming stops in crystal-clear waters of incredible colours. Experiencing this coastline from the sea is something very special. But what made this day unforgettable was above all the customer care. A huge thank you goes to Alessia, who with great kindness, helpfulness and professionalism helped me organise a surprise for my partner's birthday. She personally took care of everything, even buying the pasticciotti with the candle, allowing me to give him an exciting and perfectly successful moment. A care for the customer that goes far beyond

31 May 2026 | 3-hour boat tour of the caves on the Adriatic and Ionian sides of Salento

What a great experience!

What a great experience. We had booked online which was easy and convenient. On arrival everything was organised perfectly. The skipper, Gigi, was very polite and nice. He gave us a lot of information and did a great job. He did two swimming stops and served drinks and Puglian biscuits. The tour met all our expectations and was a highlight of our holiday.

The program was...

The program was perfect, everything was great. The boat was new, super clean, very comfortable, and the focaccia and prosecco on board were great. Nico was very very nice, very patient, explaining everything about the gougeous atmosphere of this magic place. The private tour was above our expectations. If you want to have a great experience , don't hesitate, Nico is the right guy.
