Grotta Azzurra

We will reach this body of water at the end of the slow navigation on the coast. The view of this natural bay will leave you whitout words .. It will be time to wear masks and fins and dive for a half hour swim break. For the more daring it will be possible to swim to the cave which has stalagmites and an exceptional cliff to see. The bath will be very refreshing and regenerating because spring water flows directly from the cliff. You are not obliged to go into the water and you can also remain on board, however we do not recommend it;)

Torre Truglia

In the return navigation we will continue to the west to let you admire the beautiful Torre Truglia, symbol of Sperlonga, and the historic center behind it ... It will be time to take an unforgettable photo.

Wonderful cruise! The water is as clear and green as in Sardegna! The captain knows the area so well. Highly recommended!

Patricia_R

We had a great time. We only wish it was a little longer with a little more time snorkeling. We went with teens (13 & 15), they both had a great time

Kate T

An excellent boat trip. Slow and gentle for our young daughter who was a little afraid! The Captain was great! It is the perfect length of boat trip along the stunning coastline with a stop for a swim near a fantastic cave.

proekke

Nice boat trip, good guide, relaxing trip. The 90 minutes boat trip costs 25 €/person and inkludes 30 min trip to the cave and then option to swim and dive in the cave for 30 minutes before the returen. Also some good attractions explained by the guide/captain. Recommended!

katiebW3719IV

We loved this trip. Just the right length for a family. The coast is beautiful with lots to see which helped us to get to know the area and understand the history too. The sea is a beautiful colour and so warm and our children enjoyed jumping into the sea and swimming to the cave. I would recommend this trip. Didn’t feel too busy and is good value. We will remember our trip and how helpful the people from this tour were.

geoffnina

Absolutely brilliant boat trip. Wasn’t crowded even in late June & our guide stopped and explained some of the local history along the bay. Then we arrived at the grotto. It was magical. No words can describe this cave, colour of the water & the experience. Out of this world. We had enough time to swim around, see the grotto, take photos & just enjoy our time. The communication with the company with great and very easy going. Don’t hesitate to book.
