Description
Abracadabra welcomes you on board with coffee, tea and pastries.
It will take us 40 minutes of navigation to reach the splendid island of Giannutri, in the meantime you can relax on the sun deck, admire the Spanish fortresses of Porto Ercole and the famous Argentario coast, occasionally scrutinizing the surface of the sea in search of dolphins, in a in no time at all you will be on the first dive point.
We are inside the CETACEAN SANCTUARY, it is easy to come across a herd of spinner dolphins or common dolphins.
Once we arrive, we will do a briefing that will allow you to understand which fascinating organisms you can meet by looking underwater from the surface. You will receive the necessary assistance to use your mask and fins in the best way, and, if you prefer, we can also provide you with a life jacket.
Sailing towards the second mooring point you can enjoy our staff’s fantasy of bruschetta, sandwiches, fresh fruit and the drinks on board. Once moored, you can return to dive into the wonderful crystalline waters of our sea.
To conclude on a high note and not to miss anything, the commander’s tasty dishes, 3 types of pasta with a fish, meat and vegetarian flavour, wine, coffee and the fantastic homemade cakes from grandma Renata! An alternative is always available for vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free guests!
