Piccola Nautica: Passion and Professionalism in Santa Maria di Leuca since 1993
Since 1993, Piccola Nautica has been the point of reference for those wishing to discover the Salento sea with reliability and excellence. Born as a nautical assistance and maintenance center, our company has evolved over time, specializing in rentals and guided excursions to the caves of Santa Maria di Leuca. Today, we put the experience gained over more than thirty years of activity at your disposal to offer a service where safety, comfort, and respect for nature merge into a unique experience.
Our Philosophy: Quality, Safety, and Environment
We don’t just take you out to sea; we ensure that every moment on board is perfect. Our vision is based on three fundamental pillars:
Latest Generation Fleet: We constantly invest in the renewal of our fleet. Our boats and inflatable boats are new, comfortable, and equipped with large sundeck areas.
Environmental Focus: We believe in sustainable tourism. For this reason, we exclusively use latest-generation 4-stroke engines, characterized by reduced emissions and maximum silence, to protect the marine ecosystem of our caves.
Safety and Maintenance: Thanks to our technical origins, every vessel in the fleet undergoes rigorous daily checks. Your safety and that of your loved ones is our absolute priority.
Territory Experts, at your service
Choosing Piccola Nautica means relying on those who have always lived the sea of Leuca. We know every nook and cranny of the coast, the currents, and the winds: expertise that allows us to always recommend the best itinerary between the Ionian and Adriatic sides, guaranteeing calm and crystalline waters in every weather condition.
Whether you choose a tour with our professional sailors or an independent rental, our mission remains the same: to make your day on the boat an unforgettable memory.
