We will reach this body of water at the end of the slow navigation on the coast. The wiew of this bay will leave you speechless .. 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 swim break will be very refreshing and regenerating because cold 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;)

Special Instructions
You will meet us in the port area, we have a desk and a white umbrella under the Truglia Tower. Since this is a limited traffic area I recommend you park at the "Parking delle vite", a private car park located at the entrance to Sperlonga. With a shuttle they will take you directly to us. We find ourselves in front of the "restaurant il porticciolo" positioned as the first of the three desks present, the largest of them with the RED counter. Coming from the center of low or high Sperlonga passing near the Tower we are positioned as third in order of arrival. If the desk is occupied you will have to wait your turn because the desks next to you, even if very close, represent other organizations that cannot manage your reservation. Arrival 15 minutes early is required to formalize boarding procedures. Delays for the scheduled departure at the established time will not be tolerated.
