With their dramatic limestone grottoes and spectacular blue and turquoise waters, the Pogliano Caves are one of the Adriatic Coast’s biggest attention grabbers—but they’re only accessible by boat, so land travelers often miss out on this unique natural attraction.

A traditional Apulian aperitivo is included, plus snorkeling equipment.
