Informazioni sul tour
A shorter snorkeling excursion guided by a marine biologist — ideal for families and anyone who wants to explore the protected coastline without committing to a full morning. You depart from Marina Grande in the afternoon and visit one or two snorkeling sites along the Punta Campanella coast. Your marine biologist swims alongside you, pointing out species and explaining the ecosystem of the Marine Protected Area. Common sightings include damselfish, sea bream, octopus, sea urchins, starfish, and seahorses in the Posidonia seagrass meadows. The limestone cliffs and underwater caves create dramatic scenery even at shallow depths.

FAQ
Domande frequenti su questo tour
How much does the afternoon snorkeling tour cost?
The afternoon snorkeling excursion costs €59 per person — the most affordable way to explore the Punta Campanella Marine Protected Area with a professional marine biologist guide.
How is this different from the half-day snorkeling tour?
The afternoon tour departs at 15:00 and visits one or two sites (vs. two guaranteed sites on the morning tour). It's 2.5 hours vs. 4 hours, and costs €59 vs. €89. It's ideal if you have limited time or are traveling with young children who may not want a full morning on the water.
Is this suitable for children and beginners?
Yes, this is one of the most family-friendly experiences we offer. No certification or prior experience is required — just the ability to swim. Buoyancy vests are available, and the marine biologist adapts the pace and depth to all participants, including children.
What time does it start and how long does it last?
Check-in is at 15:00 at Marina Grande 186, Sorrento. The excursion lasts approximately 2.5 hours, finishing around 17:30. Perfect for an afternoon activity that still leaves your evening free.
What equipment is provided?
Full snorkeling equipment is included: mask, fins, and wetsuit. Buoyancy vests are available if needed. You just need to bring a swimsuit (worn under the wetsuit), a towel, and sunscreen.
What will I see underwater?
Your marine biologist guide will help you spot damselfish, sea bream, octopus, sea urchins, starfish, and seahorses in the Posidonia seagrass meadows. The limestone cliffs and underwater caves create dramatic scenery even at shallow depths.
What is the cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure. If weather conditions prevent the excursion, the center will reschedule or offer a full refund.
