Fantastic way to see the coast line. Swimming though and around the caves and rocks was so easy and great to do. The boat captain knew alot about the coast and the water was so flat. There was only 6 tourists, a small group is always better. The boat was clean and well kept. The snacks and drinks was a perfect ending to a great morning.
Had a fantastic experience with our guide Fredrick, he was so knowledgeable but also 100% fun for us and the kids, we were given as much time as we wanted to swim at each of the places as well as being provided, food, drinks, info on the history of the places and music to enjoy. The whole family had such a great time!!
This was a great trip for the different activity levels of my family! My son had a great time swimming and exploring. My parents got to enjoy the afternoon on the boat seeing the great views.
A truly unforgettable experience! The boat tour along the coast from Capo Vaticano to Tropea was exciting and engaging: we spent moments of genuine carefree enjoyment, interspersed with interesting stories about the history and beauty of the places visited. A special thank you to Carmine and Luis, two professional, kind, and always courteous young men, who with their availability and friendliness made this excursion even more enjoyable. An experience that I highly recommend to anyone wanting to discover this beautiful stretch of coast.
What an unforgettable experience! If you’re visiting Tropea, this small-group boat tour along the stunning Coast of Tropea and Capo Vaticano is an absolute must. With a maximum of just 12 people on board, it felt relaxed, personal, and never overcrowded. The booking process was seamless, and the communication from Valentina was excellent, with clear confirmation and easy-to-follow meeting point details. A huge thank you to our fantastic captain, Emilio, who made the day so enjoyable. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured everyone felt comfortable throughout the trip. The coastline is simply breathtaking. We stopped to swim in four different locations, including beautiful hidden coves accessed through openings in the rocks. The crystal-clear turquoise water was warm, calm, and perfect for swimming—some of the most beautiful water we’ve ever experienced. To top it all off, we anchored just off the spectacular cliffs of Tropea, where we enjoyed delicious Italian crackers and refreshing drinks while taking in the incredible views of the historic town from the sea. We also met some wonderful people from around the world, which made the experience even more special. A heartfelt thank you to Valentina and especially Emilio for creating such a memorable day. We will treasure these memories and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tropea!
Highly recommended!! I would definitely go back :)) very friendly staff and skippers!
We had an amazing time! The water was calm and beautiful. We liked that we got to stop at a lot of places and swim. Our guide was awesome, he found an octopus and starfish for us to pet. We also got really yummy and snacks!
A very positive experience that we recommend. The cost is probably not accessible to everyone, but the quality of the service is high. Wonderful place, indeed! New and comfortable inflatable boat. The skipper Federico is kind, welcoming, and attentive. Even during the booking phase, with Valentina, everything was perfect.
So my husband and I ended up doing a private tour. It saw awesome and our tour guide Frederico was Awesome !
The staff at Tropea Vale Sea Sports was so friendly and experienced with their knowledge of snorkeling, sea creatures, and Tropea! They brought this dream excursion to life! They picked the best places to snorkeling and swim with the fish! It was a 10/10 experience and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who is looking for the best snorkeling excursion in Tropea!
