Are there evening, sunset or candlelit experiences for couples?

Most departures run during the day, but the late-afternoon and early-evening slots are the ones to aim for: a boat excursion with swimming stops and an aperitif on board is the closest thing to a sunset outing here, with the light softening over the Otranto coast. The gourmet lunch cruise is a daytime option instead.

Can we arrange something special for a proposal or anniversary?

A private boat rental from San Foca or the private-driver tour to Santa Maria di Leuca are the most flexible formats, since you control the pace and the stops. The Otranto boat tour with a gourmet lunch also suits a celebration at sea.

About Melendugno

Melendugno sits between Lecce's baroque elegance and the wild Adriatic coast, where sea caves, sea stacks and quiet coves set the tone for a day or evening for two. A sunset boat ride such as the Otranto: Boat Excursion with Swimming Stops and Aperitif pairs a swim stop with an aperitif on board, while the Roca Vecchia: Kayak & Canoe Tour to the Cave of Poetry & Adriatic Coast lets couples paddle into the Grotta della Poesia together. Both depart from the marina area around San Foca and Roca, minutes from Melendugno's centre.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Several options here are private rather than shared, including the Lecce: Exclusive Tour to Leuca & Seaside Landmarks with Private Driver, which gives couples their own car and driver along the coast. You can also rent a boat without a licence from San Foca and set your own route along the Salento shoreline.
