What to expect

Stunning nature and fascinating pieces of architecture. These are the perfect ingredients of our boat trip from Santa Maria di Leuca to the sea caves. We are ready to welcome you with a smile, and to share with you the beauty that only the coastline of Leuca can offer.

We will leave from the touristic port of Santa Maria di Leuca and head for the East Coast. Here you can admire the division of the two seas, the Ionian and the Adriatic, whose different colours intertwine, creating a unique spectacle. Shortly afterwards you will see the imposing Leuca lighthouse, considered one of the tallest in Europe, towering over the promontory. The navigation will continue along the long series of caves and inlets that characterize this side.

We will then move towards the West Coast, passing the 'heel of Italy', and from here we will be welcomed by other fascinating natural caves, such as Grotta del Diavolo, Grotta del Drago and Grotta delle Tre Porte. During the day there will be 2 swimming stops of about 20 minutes each. At the end of the excursion, you will once again be able to admire the picturesque coastline of Santa Maria di Leuca as we return to its port.

Valentino was amazing and the tour is the best. You get to visit many caves, swim in both seas with loads of fish and get some stories on the different landmarks. Great experience!

Max+ · FamilyDEGermany · June 2025

The service and entertainment were great, we are very satisfied, there were five of us on the boat and it could have fit 3-4 more people, at the end there were delicious snacks and prosecco, of course regular drinks too, all in all it couldn't have been better
