5.0 / 5 · 10 traveler reviews
We will start from the Grotta di Tiberio adorned with numerous sculptures depicting the deeds of Ulysses. We will continue along the ancient Via Flacca (187a.C.). We will admire the medieval towers dating back to the 1500s and wonderful natural caves. We will arrive in Gaeta (LT) and we will admire the "Montagna Spaccata". The show that offers the reserve of the Regional park of Ulisse, is amazing. UNIQUE experience, because I have a regular permit to access it.

We will reach this body of water at the end of the slow navigation on the coast. The wiew of this bay will leave you speechless .. It will be time to wear masks and fins and dive for a half hour swim break. For the more daring it will be possible to swim to the cave which has stalagmites and an exceptional cliff to see. The swim break will be very refreshing and regenerating because cold water flows directly from the cliff. You are not obliged to go into the water and you can also remain on board, however we do not recommend it;)
