Details
There's nothing more romantic than a sunset boat trip to the Salento caves with aperitif! This unique experience will begin at the port of Torre Vado and continue southwards to discover the Ionian coast of Apulia.
The first attraction we will admire is Marina di San Gregorio, which was once a coastal tower. We will also visit dozens of caves, including the Grotta del Drago, the Grotta dei Giganti and the Grotta delle Tre Porte, the most famous, until we reach Punta Ristola, the southernmost point of Puglia.
A swim stop is planned along the way so you can enjoy the crystal clear waters of southern Italy while you watch the sunset lights change the colour of the sea. Once we arrive in Santa Maria di Leuca, we can admire its lighthouse and the famous Monumental Staircase. We'll head then back to Torre Vado and along the way, the crew will offer you a tasty typical Apulian aperitif.
