What to expect
Your guide collects you and drives through scenic coastal routes, stopping at Isola Bella—a striking rocky island with turquoise shallows. Most of the tour involves beach time here; bring your swimsuit and water shoes for comfortable wading across the rocky seabed. The vehicle is comfortable and equipped with refreshments. Depending on your interests, you might snorkel (bring your own mask) or simply swim and explore. The pace is relaxed and personalised; your driver adjusts stops and timing to match your ship's turnaround.
