Details
Hop on board with us for this boat trip from Gallipoli to Sant'Andrea Island and set off to discover the amazing coast of Salento. With this trip, you get the chance to admire one of the few islands of this region up close and relax during the swimming stops off the coast.
Our journey starts from the dock of Seno Del Canneto, a historical location of the city, close to the ancient Greek Fountain and directly overlooking the Castle of Gallipoli. Once on board, we sail along Spiaggia della Purità (Beach of Purity), the only beach located in the historic centre. Immediately afterward, we head towards Sant'Andrea Island, and its imposing lighthouse dating back to 1866, the town's landmark. The area around the island is part of a protected area to safeguard its fauna.
We will then stop off the island, and you will have time to swim and snorkel, being able to capture your best moments in the crystal-clear water of Gallipoli, as a GoPro camera is at your disposal on the boat. Once back on board, good music and an apéritif with prosecco will be waiting for you as we slowly head back to our starting point.
