Beautiful, fun, and swimming - We had a great time on this excursion! We were in a group of 6 and it was perfect. It’s a family business. The daughter helps guide everyone and the brother and dad command the boat. Highly recommended!

A beautiful day Gaetana on the boat - My friends and I wanted to see Gaeta from another perspective, and we chose the 4-hour tour to enjoy the day on the boat. Dario and Simone were very kind from the beginning of this experience. Dario welcomed us on his boat and we began the fantastic tour starting from Montagna Spaccata, reaching Sperlonga, stopping to take a few dives in the most beautiful and characteristic points of the 7 beaches of Gaeta (the cave of the dolls, the beach of the 40 oars and the devil's well). We left with high expectations and we were not disappointed at all, on the contrary! And it didn't end there... the icing on the cake was finding the slices of pizza on board to have a snack together. Thank you Simo and Dario for this fantastic Sunday, we will return soon to make other trips to Gaeta. Super recommended!

Top boat trip! - A really nice boat trip! Excursion lasting about 4 hours in the company of Dario, an experienced navigator, friendly and super helpful (he even let us make an extra stop!). The stop at the split mountain and the view of Sperlonga from the sea are beautiful! Advised!

Amazing experience! - We really enjoyed our sailing with Mario. Since we arrived at the meet point they guide us to a amazing time. Our focus was to see the El Grotto del Turco but he showed us much more and explained all that we had around and we can understand what we was seeing. All the views in our way was breathtaking! We really recommend this tour.

Day on a boat among enchanting places and crystal clear water. Simone the captain is friendly and helpful - An unforgettable experience, I celebrated my birthday on the boat for 11 people. We swam in places with crystal clear water. We spent 6 hours at sea and Simone told us a little about the history of the castles, towers that overlook the cliff and he helped us with every request. The final cake was a very welcome surprise. Thank you for everything and above all for your kindness and availability!

A wonder sea, coastal view and swim experience from sea loving family business - This was a most fantastic two days out on glorious sea. Where I could swim and enjoy watching a magnificent and picturesque coastline. I very rich and wonderful part of Lazio. Great family business, true sea living and loving family. Highly recommended. Dario has been on the sea for 30 years, you can see it is his life, he loves his job I highly recommended the 4 hour experience and if you’re not nervous sit up the front of the boat on the way back as the water splashes up and keeps you cool. So much fun. There’s undercover to protect from sun, yet bring a hat, and sun protection. Simone will take you out on two days which is really lovely and you’re back in time for lunch. Bookings are super easy with friendly professional service.
