We had a wonderful time on this boat trip. Francesco was perfect: welcoming and very knowledgeable about his island.
The snorkeling spots were perfect.
We highly recommend it.

It was a wonderful experience. Francesco, the boat captain, was super kind and friendly! We did 4 or 5 dive stops—I don't remember—in the most beautiful spots on the island, accessible only by boat.
Francesco tells the story of the place at each stop, and if you're lucky, he teaches you how to do some amazing cannon dives. 🤣
