    Our tour was excellent and Andrea was a wonderful guide. We loved the mix of telling us about the history of the area, swimming, and sharing some wine and snacks.

    Andrea was wonderful! He isn't just the skipper, he's a good teacher and an enjoyable person!

    We had a wonderful time on the coast near Tropea. Our skipper Andrea answered every question that popped in our heads. What a beautiful area and what a knowledgable man!

    Amazing tour!

    This trip was amazing!! Michele was our guide and he was super nice and gave us lots of information about the area. The sea and the views were so beautiful!!! There was not too many people on the boat, so it felt intimate and not crowded at all. I think October is a great time because there was not a lot of tourists on the water and the temperature was perfect. Also the wine and snacks were great! Also I really appreciate Romina reaching out to me and rescheduling our tour to the next day, since there was not enough people confirmed. I was afraid it would get canceled but it wasn't! Thank you both so much!!

    Great snorkeling experience

    Excellent trip, Andrea was an excellent captain and showed us a great time. Beautiful scenery and lots of little fish to see.

    Poor value for money....

    Melanie_S, Aug 2023
    Poor value for money. Similar boat experiences available for half the cost. No life jackets available, more than 12 people on board, very poor snack and beverage selection.

    Don’t miss out!

    We had the most memorable...

    Erin_C, Jul 2023
    We had the most memorable experience traveling the coast of Tropea and Capo Vaticano in some of the clearest water I have ever seen. We had an opportunity to snorkel at 4 different locations and were provided lovely Calabrian snacks and homemade wine. We also got to try fresh sea urchin! I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see this area from the most beautiful point of view.

    Brilliant

    Breathtaking views, great spots to swim, knowledgable and friendly guides. Plenty of snacks and wine on board and the tour guide even sent us a drone video of us snorkeling. Truly wonderful and one of the best tours we took in Italy. If you are in Tropea this is an absolute must!!!
