Read the full experience

The boat slips away from the pier and the town’s cliff houses shrink into a line of color; the sea takes the lead, and the wind carries the scent of lemon groves and salt. For four hours you move along sheer limestone walls carved by millennia of waves, pausing where the water looks impossibly clear and the light turns turquoise.
