Details
To explore our beautiful coast from the sea, you should embark on our RIB boat trip from Tropea to Capo Vaticano with snorkeling stops.
Our tour will start from the port of Tropea and navigate south until we reach our first stop, the famous Santuario di Santa Maria dell'Isola, a monastery from the Middle Ages set on a steep rock facing the sea. Here we will take our first dip in the water and explore the wonders of the underwater ecosystem. Our expert snorkeling guide will help you spot the local wildlife, and maybe you will even get to swim along with a colourful school of fish.
The next snorkeling stop will be between Formicoli and Torre Marino, where our staff will also offer everyone some fresh wine or soft drinks that you can enjoy in the sun-protected areas of our RIB. During the whole duration of the trip, our skipper will tell you about Tropea and the surrounding area and share knowledge about the sea with you.
Once we reach Capo Vaticano, we will take a last dip in the sea, admiring the lighthouse and some beautiful white beaches. We will then make our way back to the port of Tropea.

We booked a boat tour with TropeaSub to admire the wonders of Tropea, and we had a wonderful time. The guide was knowledgeable and friendly, and we made three wonderful stops to swim and admire the marine life. The price is more than fair for everything they offer, including snacks and prosecco. Highly recommended.
