The POLIGNANO kayak trip is a fascinating tour, not physically demanding and therefore also suitable for those who have never gone kayaking. On the way we will show you hidden caves and ravines, all to be explored! After putting on the life jackets and entering our kayaks, we will be ready to sail southwards alongside the splendid and very high coast of Polignano. We will pass by the famous beach of Lama Monachile, we will visit the most beautiful caves and ravines of the route and finally we will arrive in Porto Alga for a short stop before returning. This trip gives great emotions and allows you to navigate the blue waters of the coast of Polignano looking at the very high rocky coast that separates the city from the sea. We will take advantage of the unique perspective from the sea and the proximity to the coast that only a kayak can offer to visit one of the most beautiful stretches of sea in the Adriatic Salento! N.B. The route may change according to weather and sea conditions

Inclusions: Introductory lesson, Paddle and life jacket, Photo Shoot: photos will be sent via Whatsapp, kayak single or double (it is not possible to choose them in advance, they will be assigned by the guide)

Reviewed By Israel R

While planning our trip to Italy, one of the destinations marked "high priority" & "must not 2 B missed" was the cruise of the marine and sea caves in Viesta. And indeed, the cruise we went on met all our expectations. The weather was wonderful, the skipper was "Masterful" and, most of all, the view of the beach with the white chalk cliffs and all the marine caves and Grottos was "extremely amazing". One of the most striking pieces was the skipper's "Master" control of steering the boat especially as we entered into the Grottos in the rock which were extremely narrow, and the boat could not be turned to get out. The skipper cruised the boat in reverse mode, less than five feet from the cave walls, "Incredible Mastery" of the "Master skipper”. This cruise is a MUST and I think you should not miss it. You will have wonderful memories for life.
