Beautiful excursion to discover what is not seen on the land side - The best way to discover Polignano on the sea side and its magnificent caves! Marco is very nice and a real Ace, I recommend ☺️

You must do this ! - For someone a bit scared of the sea this was surprisingly, for me, the best day of my holiday. Marco gave a good talk beforehand about the different strokes we’d need to use and how to get in and out of the kayak etc. I wish that could’ve taken place under cover or in some shade as we were all nearly passing out with the heat so it was delicious to get into the gorgeous lukewarm water in the little cove. It was very easy to row along and we visited the caves running along the shoreline, stopping in one to have a swim. Lots of photo opportunities. The whole experience took about 3 hrs and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

40 minutes from port but worth it!!! - We had such a fun time. We learned the basics of kayaking in a mini course first and then enjoyed some of the most beautiful scenery I've ever seen. Our kids, ages 12 and 10, were also able to really enjoy it. CRUISE PASSENGERS MAKE NOTE: if you are porting in Bari this experience is about 35-40 minutes drive from the port and taxis are very expensive so plan ahead. It was totally worth it!

Awesome Kid-friendly Kayaking around Polignano! - One of the best tours during our 17 day vacation! Marco was great and and super friendly with our kids (12 and 15 years-old).... a fantastic Kayak instructor who quickly taught us the fundamentals needed. The sites and coastline were incredible but my kids really loved exploring and swimming in the caves/coves....as well as diving off the rocks into crystal clear water. A fantastic and enjoyable experience that I highly recommend!

Puglia Kayaking, a must do experience! - I organized kayaking as a pre wedding event and it was incredible 5 star experience! Most of the group were beginners but felt confident as instructor took time to explain all the basic strokes. #backtofront #fronttoback We kayaked along the coast and through caves, where the water was crystal clear. Something only accessible through this unique experience. This is a must do if you come to Puglia!

Amazing experience, perfect for all abilities - We really enjoyed our kayaking experience. The instructors were fantastic, so helpful and knowledgeable. Getting out of the kayak and swimming in the cave was a particular highlight and gave our arms a nice break. It wasn’t a challenging kayak so would be perfect for any ability but expect your shoulders to be aching the next day. Would definitely recommend this experience

Great experience - Our guide Marco was funny and knowledgeable. He took us through caves and a area we could get out of our kayaks and swim. It was a great experience! Make sure to wear water shoes, the rocks are sharp and slippery.
