Departure at 10:00 am from Porto Ercole or Porto Santo Stefano. You will set off to sail along the crests of this magnificent silvery sea full of life under the Argentario sky: you will admire the small bays surrounded by nature, commonly known as calette, each of which is unique and memorable.

Depending on the wind and sea conditions, our captain will choose the coves to reach during the day so that you can enjoy a day in safety and rest. In fact Civitatours is very attentive to your safety and therefore follows and respects all the measures of the Covid-19 health protocol.

In the middle of the morning our captain will delight you with a snack of bruschetta accompanied by a glass of prosecco or a cold drink; for the little ones we will serve soft drinks.

Afterwards, a special surprise lunch prepared by our captain who will prepare a mouth-watering dish: his special and famous cold pasta with tuna, cherry tomatoes and avocado or a plate of spaghetti with clams or simply a cold rice/pasta enriched with 0 km products. They say they are real delicacies! Everything will be accompanied by a good fresh wine and various drinks. We remain available for other types of menus that we can offer on request.

During the day you will be able to admire the famous crystal clear water of Cala Grande, the famous white pebbles polished by the sea and an ancient watchtower in Cala del Gesso as well as the tower of the Cannelle Argentate, which was built on the promontory of the bay to protect against barbarian attacks and from which it takes its name. Enjoy our Argentario Boat Trip!

The Grotta dei Santi, on the other hand, is famous for its bizarre stalactites and stalagmites whose shapes resemble the figures of saints from which the cave takes its name. It is also one of the most ancient areas of Monte Argentario, as it is here that relics of life from remote and distant times have been found.

Lastly, you will pass by the Grotta Azzurra, which, like the grotto on Capri, is unique and beautiful thanks to the daylight that reflects in the water, giving it a particular intense blue.

All this is thanks to Civitatours, which will allow you to discover the Argentario by boat as you will never have the chance to do: in fact, we inform you that the boat can also be hired exclusively on request.
