Highlights
Only your group of up to 12 people can participate in this VIP private tour. We will sail from the port of Sperlonga and sail slowly inside the Riviera di Ulisse Regional Park. We will tell you about our coast , rich in history and breathtaking landscapes. We will start from the Cave of Tiberius adorned by the emperor of the same name with numerous marble sculptures depicting the exploits of Ulysses. We will continue along the ancient Via Flacca (187a.C.). We will admire the medieval towers dating back to 1500 and finally the wonderful natural caves of limestone formation: the caves of Bazzano, Caves of Capovento and the most suggestive, the "Grotta delle Bambole". Ready for the bath? Immerse yourself in its crystal clear waters! At your ascent on board there will be a delicious homemade red pizza and a glass of prosecco to make the experience unique.

We will reach this body of water at the end of the slow navigation on the coast. The view of this natural bay will leave you whitout words .. It will be time to wear masks and fins and dive for a half hour swim break. For the more daring it will be possible to swim to the cave which has stalagmites and an exceptional cliff to see. The bath will be very refreshing and regenerating because spring water flows directly from the cliff. You are not obliged to go into the water and you can also remain on board, however we do not recommend it;)
In the return navigation we will continue to the west to let you admire the beautiful Torre Truglia, symbol of Sperlonga, and the historic center behind it ... It will be time to take an unforgettable photo.
Return to the harbour, after the mooring maneuvers it will be possible to get off the boat.
These attractions are part of the natural marine reserve that is part of the "Riviera di Ulisse" Regional Park
The experience will take place in this place awarded as "one of the most beautiful villages in Italy" which also had the prestigious recognition of the "Blue Flag" this year.

About Sperlonga
Sperlonga is a whitewashed hill town above sandy beaches on Lazio's southern coast, between Rome and Naples, with an emperor's sea cave nearby.
The old town of Sperlonga climbs a rocky promontory above the Tyrrhenian Sea, a tangle of white stairways, arches and small squares that look down on two long beaches of fine sand. A sixteenth-century watchtower, Torre Truglia, stands at the edge of the town, one of several built along this coast as a defence against raiders from the sea.
