Overview

This is not a crowded boat trip. We are a small family-run team with a 10 - seat boat, departing from the quiet fishing harbor of San Vito to avoid the chaos of the main port.

You will see all of Polignano’s famous sea caves, including Grotta Palazzese and the Lovers’ Cave where a heart-shaped light appears at 1 PM. We stop in front of Domenico Modugno's statue while playing "Volare" for the ultimate photo moment.

Your local skipper chooses the best secluded cove for a swim stop based on sea conditions. Enjoy a true Puglian aperitif on board with chilled Prosecco DOC, crunchy taralli, and fresh fruit. No crowds, no rush, just you, the sea, and the real dolce vita.
