Glide into sea caves, hidden grottoes and amber-lit coves carved into Monte Argentario's wild cliffs on a private motorboat. This is the definitive way to experience the promontory's most dramatic and inaccessible beauty.
What to expect
Your skipper, born and raised on the Argentario, pilots you along cliff faces streaked rust and gold, ducking into low-ceilinged sea caves where the water glows an impossible turquoise. You'll have the boat to yourselves, swimming off the stern into coves unmarked on any map. Lunch can be arranged with fresh-caught seafood from a shoreside fisherman's co-operative. The pace is entirely yours.
Good to know
Half-day (3–4 hours) comfortably fits most port schedules. Book at least two weeks ahead in July–August. The operator is dockside in Porto Ercole harbour — confirm departure point when booking.
