Top Lecce Eco Tours

Journeying through Capo di Leuca by bicycle allows travelers to go where buses and cars can’t. With this tour, cruise through the charming villages of the region along bike paths and “secondary” streets. Discover hidden gems like the medieval hamlet of Giuliano and the Sanctuary of Leuca Piccola in Barbarano. It’s an easy, roughly 9.3-mile (15 kilometers) bike ride suitable for all fitness levels.

The Porto Selvaggio kayak tour is our most popular tourn, suitable for those who have never been kayaking. During the tour we will show you hidden caves and ravines, all waiting to be explored! We will kayak along the rocky coast overlooking the sea where the Tower of S. Maria dell'Alto stands. We will take advantage of the unique perspective from the sea and the proximity to the coast that only a kayak can offer to visit one of the most beautiful stretches of sea in the Ionian Salento! Along this stretch of coast is the stunning Grotta Verde. If the sea conditions allows it, we will also be able to enter it! Once we arrive at the bay of Porto Selvaggio, we will disembark with the kayaks on a rocky beach. At this point there will be the ritual of the kayak baptism, which consists of a full immersion in the icy waters of the spring. This will be followed by a walk in the pine forest and finally we will dive from the cliff to swim into the Gaia Cave. N.B. The experience is not suitable for people weighing more than 100kg
