Descrizione

Partenza dal porto di Tropea con gommone MASTER33 portata max 33 persone, ci dirigeremo verso sud costeggiando Tropea e visitando le sue antiche bellezze.

Inizieremo sostando sotto la chiesa della Madonna dell’Isola. Proseguendo visiteremo l’affascinante Grotta Azzurra, particolare per l’acqua trasparente e cristallina al suo interno. Proseguendo arriveremo a Formicoli, chiamato un tempo “Porto Herculis”, essendo stato un tempo un porto romano ora sommerso potremmo visitare le sue bellezze con maschera e pinne accompagnati in acqua da una guida snorkeling. Infine arriviamo al promontorio di Capo Vaticano, dove potrete ammirare il faro a picco e le meravigliose spiagge bianche chiamate “Praia i Focu”, dov’è possibile sostare e visitarle esclusivamente in barca. Ritornando verso Tropea faremo un’ultima sosta alla baia di riaci ammirando questo enorme scoglio visiteremo i suoi anfratti con maschera e pinne. Dopo una splendida mezza giornata insieme a noi e al nostro staff rientreremo al porto di Tropea.
