What to expect
Take a cruise along the coast of Sperlonga to discover bays, sea caves, and more. Swim in the blue waters of the Blue Grotto with a snorkel to see incredible marine life and rock formations. Learn about the medieval history of this Italian coastline and its links to Ulysses as you relax on deck.
Board the boat and immediately set cruise. As you leave the port, take in the first wonder of the trip: Grotta di Tiberio. Marvel at the natural cavity decorated with marble sculptures depicting the deeds of Ulysses. Continue sailing along the coast and admire the medieval towers dating back to 1500.
Then, discover the natural limestone caves of Bazzano and Capovento. Marvel at the suggestive Grotta delle Bambole or doll cave, so called for the bizarre shapes of its stalactites. Next, reach the incredible unspoiled bay of the Blue Grotto, which takes its name from the intense blue of its water.
Stop here for half an hour, good swimmers can swim inside the cave, or you can stay in the bay for a refreshing swim and some snorkeling. Enjoy the waters, which are particularly clean, fresh, and crystal clear thanks to the natural spring that flows from the cliffs. Alternatively, relax on board.
On the way back, admire the views as you approach the beautiful Torre Truglia, the symbol of Sperlonga, with the historic center behind it, providing the perfect photo opportunity.
