Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE WATER

Swim and Snorkel in Crystalline Coves

The itinerary focuses on stops in sheltered calas of clear Mediterranean water where the group disembarks the boat to swim and snorkel—short, high‑quality water time framed by the bay’s rock and sand.

THE GEOLOGY

Explore Sea Caves Only Reachable by Boat

Part of the trip’s draw is access: the captain navigates to coves and caves that are difficult or impossible to reach from land, turning the coastline into a string of small, sheltered exploration sites.

THE GEAR

Paddle‑surf and Snorkel Equipment for Active Stops

Stops include opportunities to use paddle boards and snorkel kit, allowing travelers to move away from the boat and probe shallow reefs and shorelines under their own power.
