Tour Description
The boat excursion to Torre San Giovanni is the perfect choice for those who wish to experience the sea at its brightest and most Caribbean-like. Departing from Santa Maria di Leuca, we will sail northwards up the Ionian coast, along a route offering breathtaking views of low cliffs that fade into pristine white beaches. With Piccola Nautica, this crossing becomes a moment of pure privilege: you will have a private boat at your disposal to explore a stretch of coastline famous for its shallow waters and the richness of its marine life.
An Itinerary through Islets and Turquoise Waters
The feature that makes Torre San Giovanni unique is the presence of its famous “shallows” and the small islets that emerge not far from the coast. During our exclusive navigation, we will head towards these corners of paradise where the water maintains a pleasant temperature and incredible transparency. You will be able to admire from up close the historic black-and-white checkered watchtower, the symbol of the marina, which stands out among the pine forests and the sea.
A private journey through the crystal-clear shallows and the pristine nature of the Ionian coast.
Since this is a customized tour, you will have total freedom to decide where to drop anchor. You can dive off the islets for a rejuvenating snorkeling session or simply stay on board to enjoy the sun, cradled by the slow rhythm of the Ionian waves, far from the crowded beaches and in complete privacy.

What they say about us
FAQ – FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Given the distance from Leuca, we usually recommend the “Full Day” option to fully enjoy the journey up the coast and the long swimming stops among the shallows. However, customized half-day itineraries can be arranged based on your preferences.

The Ionian side is sensitive to winds blowing from the Southwest. In the event of rough seas that compromise comfort on board, we will evaluate together a date change or a move to the Adriatic side, where the waters will be flat and protected.
The Ionian side is generally calm with Scirocco winds, but in the event of rough seas that make navigation uncomfortable, we will promptly suggest an alternative itinerary on the Adriatic side or a change of date.
