By Sea… In the Port Museum

Sailing in the Otranto Canal, in the extreme south-east of Italy, observing the high cliff crowned by a thick vegetation of Mediterranean maquis, largely still uncontaminated. Climb the wind on the historic lateen sail boats of the Museum of Traditional Boats or on the small optimist and fast lasers. Go out to sea with the fishermen for a fishing trip, made even more exciting by the stories and anecdotes of those who live the sea every day. Immerse yourself in the crystal-clear waters of the coast of Tricase to discover the beauty of a sea barely touched by the hand of man.
