What you can expect

Discover the Salento coast on a boat tour. Visit the Palombara, Azzurra, Zinzulusa, and Romanelli caves, and swim in the inlets of Porto Miggiano, Romanelli Bay, and the sulphurous waters of Santa Cesarea Terme.

Set sail on a goiter boat and cruise along the coast. Visit the Palombara, Azzurra, Zinzulusa, and Romanelli caves. The Palombara cave is named after the pigeons that live here and drink the water that flows from the limestone walls.

The Azzurra cave is named after the colour of the water, which is illuminated by the sun's rays that penetrate under the water and reflect off the walls that descend to a depth of 8 metres.

The Zinzulusa cave is named after the word “Zinzuli,” which in the local dialect means rags. In fact, observing the stalactites from afar, they look like rags hanging to dry. The cave was discovered in the late 1700s and is has been opened since 1953.

The Romanelli cave is very important from an historic and archaeological point of view. Outside the cave, see a mixture of stone and soil, which is part of the vault collapsed. Indeed, before the cave was wider. This mixture has merged with the remains of animals and humans that were inside it has been perfectly persevered to this day.

The bones were discovered and later identified as belonging to tropical and arctic animals confirming that this area has been both tropical and Arctic (Ice Age).

Stop for a swim in the inlets of Porto Miggiano, Romanelli Bay, and the sulphurous waters of Santa Cesarea Terme.

After your dive into the crystal clear waters you can enjoy a tasty aperitif with snacks and drinks!
