Grotta del Soffio - at the Soffio cave it will be possible to take a swim of about 30 minutes to admire the cave up close and immerse yourself inside.
After the swim stop, we set off again towards the west coast - Torre Dell’omomorto - tower dating back to 1500, in the past used to spot the presence of the Saracens
- Punta Ristola - Punta Ristola is the most south-eastern tip of Italy
-
La Grotta delle Tre Porte - Recall the monumental entrance with 3 accesses from which to enjoy the splendid play of light on the blue water. Inside the cave we find a tunnel of about 30 m which takes the name of Grotta ‘del Bambino’, because inside it was found one of the molars of a child of about 10 years dating back to the Neanderthal era.
Here we will stop to take a break for about 30 minutes to swim.
After the swim break, you will visit two other caves and then return to the port.

Great tour - Small group of international people, Italian, German, Irish and Dutch. The captain was great! He took us into a cave and provided us with snorkels and floating gear. The three hours went by very fast. A lot of information was given and translated by one of the Italian people. At the end we had a drink (Prosecco , Coca Cola, water, and other beverages) and there was some pizza and other food . Overall a great experience and I enjoyed it very much.

Amazing. - We did this excursion and everything was perfect, from the itinerary to the company. We were 12 people so we were quiet and comfortable.
What about Andrea and Marcello? The real pearls of the boat that with their explanations, their wisdom and their passion made us spend three wonderful hours. Thank you so much!!!!

A fabulous experience - The tour of the caves was very nice. The breathtaking landscape was enriched by the stories and sympathy of our Guide Andrea. It is a tour that I recommend for those who want to spend three pleasant hours between the wonders of the Adriatic and Ionian Seas.

Beautiful and very interesting tour of the caves - Fantastic boat ride, Commander Andrea was an excellent guide, describing the different caves, also telling pleasant anecdotes and the history of those places.
We made two bathroom stops and he provided us with snacks and cool drinks as soon as we got back on the boat. Experience to do

Boat excursion Santa Maria di Leuca - A beautiful boat trip, a tour that gives you the opportunity to visit the caves of Leuca up to admire the southernmost tip of Italy and the meeting of the two Ionian and Adriatic seas... We also had the chance to dive into the fabulous crystal clear waters of Leuca, ending the tour with a satisfying aperitif on board 👍😊 Recommendation✌️
