Santa Maria di Leuca From the Sea
Santa Maria di Leuca From the Sea
This is a unique opportunity to possibly witness two seas come together on a boat expedition that also includes stops for swimming and viewing of Southern Italy’s unique coastal sea cave system.
From the pier, you will have a short 15 minute transfer by minibus along the coast from Leuca to Torre Vado to board the boat for the exploration along the coast.
At “the end of the world”, or another name for Santa Maria di Leuca; the Adriatic and Ionian seas meet, and you have a chance to observe this magical event onboard your local boat. With proper sea conditions, it is often possible to see a line of separation between the two seas, resulting from the mixing of the currents coming from the Gulf of Taranto and the Strait of Otranto.
As the boat travels along the rugged coastline, you will spot many interesting sea caves and even stop at 2 different locations to swim in the gorgeous turquoise waters. The boat Captain will determine the best locations depending on the weather conditions of the day to maximize your swimming experience.
Enjoy refreshments onboard of seasonal fresh fruits, soft drinks and white wine after the swimming stops. This is an extraordinary opportunity to meet the seas and enjoy the southern most tip of Italy's Puglia region.
