About this experience
Relive the legend of the pirates with a private and exclusive tour reserved only for your group along the Riviera of Ulysses. The Tour to the Corsair Caves takes you to discover the most authentic side of Sperlonga.
After leaving the port, the coastal navigation reaches the Cave of Tiberius, continues towards the Beach of Bazzano, the Cave of the Donkeys and the suggestive promontory of Capovento, accompanied by the stories and legends of the Captain. The most exciting moment is at the famous Blue Grotto, famous for its reflections, followed by the Spiaggia delle Bambole, known for the transparency of the seabed.
The tour includes three long stops for swimming, with the possibility of diving off the boat, snorkeling and exploring different caves. Stops are chosen by the Captain based on sea conditions.
