What to expect
You'll board from San Vito lo Capo and head south along a protected coastline. The skipper knows the best anchorages and will suggest stops based on conditions and your mood—whether that's a sheltered bay for a long snorkel, a quiet beach for lunch, or a dramatic rock formation for photos. Expect to spend most of the day in the water or drifting. Lunch arrives mid-journey; bring sunscreen and a towel. The boat rocks gently if seas are up, so take that into account if you're prone to motion sickness.
Good to know
Bring high-SPF sunscreen and reapply often. Wear water shoes for rocky entries. If you have mobility concerns, confirm accessibility when booking. The boat is best suited to swimmers; non-swimmers should discuss comfort levels ahead. Peak summer means warmer water but busier anchorages.
