About the tour

Meet an English-speaking Ponza guide for the day in the main port of Ponza for a 10:30 AM start before boarding your boat excursion for the day.

This Ponza Island boat excursion circumnavigates all 42 beautiful miles of coastline, weather and sea conditions permitting. You'll come across stunning volcanic rock formations, sea caves, blue grottos, hidden coves, and rocky beaches. 

Along the way, your Ponza guide will share fascinating stories about the long history of the island, including evidence of neanderthals inhabiting the area. The Roman's left their mark here as well, leaving ruins of villas, aqueducts and even a series of decorated sea grottos where they farmed fish.

You'll have the opportunity to admire wonderful places such as the Pilate's Caves up to Chiaia di Luna, Capo Bianco, Lucia Rosa, Cala Feola and many other stunning little coves! 

The boat excursion will stop at 4 to 5 locations around the island where you can swim and snorkel directly off the boat for 25-30 minutes. At lunchtime, your boat captain will prepare a fresh, hot pasta lunch which will be served with wine, drinks, water, fruit, snacks and espresso.  Additionally, you'll have free drinks during the excursion!

At 5:00 PM the boat excursion will come to an end, returning to the starting point, the main port of Ponza.

The tour takes place every Tuesday and Thursday.

Had a great time

The views were absolutely amazing The water was incredible and our tour guide Valerio was awesome He was fun and friendly and very knowledgeable The lunch was definitely an experience as an American tuna in tomato sauce with olives over pasta was not something I was expecting but not a bad meal and there was a plain pasta alternative Definitely bring sunblock and a wetdry bag for clothes to change into after the boat The shops and cafés on Ponza Island were very nice more like boutiques instead of cheap plastic souvenir shops Highly recommend Will be going back to Ponza to stay for longer
