Set out from Taranto with skipper Nicola for a private boat day combining fishing, scenic cruising, and swimming in shallow or deep water. Groups of up to 12 can choose a half-day or full-day route. Fishing gear and coolers are provided, but fuel costs extra, so confirm the final price before departure.

“Nicola was happy and polite but this was not the fishing trip we had expected. Beach stops were good and he tried to make it up to us with an extra hour and several proseccos which was kind. However, he was an hour late, had no bait, we stayed within the harbour and it wasn't the fishing trip we had been led to believe we had paid €228 ( fuel costs) for. Lovely chap but maybe not the boat for fishing.”

Join skipper Daniele Greco’s small-group cruise from Vibo Marina for trolling, dolphin watching, and a swim near Pizzo’s Piedigrotta cave-chapel. The boat carries up to 12 people, with fishing and snorkeling equipment included. Dolphins are wild, so sightings are possible but never promised. Guides speak English, German, and Italian.

“výlet člunem v malé skupině byl příjemný, nikdo ovšem nechytil ani rybku, delfíny jsme nepotkali. To bychom oželet, výhledy z člunu na pobřeží a Pizzo pěkné, ale určitě nám chybělo drobné občerstvení ( stačilo by úplně jednoduché - pár plátků salámu, bruscheta, ovoce a sklenka vínka) a třeba i klidná náladová hudba).To by určitě vyrovnalo zklamání z toho, že jsme nepotkali žádné delfíny). Místo na šnorchlování také nebylo vybrané nejlépe, nepochopili jsme, proč kapitán nezastavil cca 100 m dříve po pobřeží, kde byla zajímavá posvátná jeskyně a svatyně. Přístav ve Vibo Marina a možnost se občerstvit před a po plavbě v malém, příjemném baru přímo na molu s nádhernou vyhlídkou…”

“Sal was one of the most charismatic and genuine hosts I have come across. It is his families business and it shows. He truly cared about everyone feeling comfortable and having a great time. His crew mate was also excellent. We stayed on board to fish and they were quick to provide instruction and even our 11 year old daughter caught many fish! It was one of our favorite activities here. Highly recommended!”
