The boat slips free from Marina Yachting Portolano as the shorelight softens and the sea begins to mirror the sky—gold sliding into coral. For three hours you glide along Salento’s southern fringe, the hull cutting past limestone cliffs and low, scrubby maquis while the captain reads the wind and chooses between Punta della Suina, Isola di Sant’Andrea or Punta Pizzo depending on the swell.

The boat slips free from Marina Yachting Portolano as the shorelight softens and the sea begins to mirror the sky—gold sliding into coral. For three hours you glide along Salento’s southern fringe, the hull cutting past limestone cliffs and low, scrubby maquis while the captain reads the wind and chooses between Punta della Suina, Isola di Sant’Andrea or Punta Pizzo depending on the swell.
Gallipoli’s waterfront has been a working harbor since Greek and Byzantine times; the coastline is carved from Miocene limestone and shelters clear coves where Posidonia meadows hold the sand and marine life. Onboard, the mood is practical and slow: a swim stop in transparent water, time to snorkel over rocky seabeds, and a small aperitivo of regional snacks and wine as the sun drops. Seabirds wheel and, occasionally, dolphins will cut the horizon—nature that still feels in charge.
This is a relaxed, beginner-friendly outing rather than a racing sail: expect short, calm passages with at least one swim, snorkeling gear provided, and a small group (up to six). Practical points: arrive 15 minutes early, pack a towel and wind layer for the cooling air after sunset, and keep clear of Posidonia beds when swimming or anchoring. If you’re prone to seasickness, choose a spot mid-boat and consider a patch or medication. The trip runs roughly 17:00–20:00 and is best booked when forecast light winds keep the sea glassy—conditions that turn a simple cruise into a precise Salento evening.
Yes—basic snorkeling masks and snorkels are included; you may prefer to bring your own for fit and hygiene.
Yes, but everyone should be comfortable with the idea of being off-shore; life vests are available and crew will assist getting in and out of the water.
The operator cancels for unsafe conditions and offers a full refund if canceled at least 24 hours before departure or if weather cancels the trip.
A small aperitivo with local snacks and bottled water is included; alcoholic beverages are typically part of the tasting unless otherwise noted.
