    Adriatic Coast: High Cliffs And Emerald Sea

    The landscape changes completely on the Adriatic coast characterized by high cliffs and much more rock that transforms the color from the sea from turquoise to emerald.
    The best way to catch this difference is from the boat, enjoying an itinerary between the caves and the two seas.
    We will return to Bari, stopping in the Otranto area and for dinner just outside Lecce.

    The first boat tour usually leaves at 10am, so we have plenty of time to go to the lighthouse at Capo Santa Maria di Leuca and admire the view of the Gulf of Leuca.
    In operation since 1866, it is one of the most beautiful in our country and the second highest in Europe.

    I did my boat tour with Marco Antonio, the captain of Salento Waves, and I couldn't have chosen a better guide.
    During this tour you will visit the wonderful caves on the coast, sometimes even diving in to admire them from the inside. My favorite was definitely the blowing one, having overcome the initial difficulty of entering with the mountain literally blowing on you, you will be faced with one of the most intense blues ever thanks to the play of light filtering inside.
    The tour takes about three hours, I calculated 3h30 to allow you to calmly return and take the car back.
    To book, feel free to call the captain directly at: +39 349 088 5506
