Informazioni sul tour
Snorkel as the sun sets over the Sorrento coast — then switch on underwater torches to explore the nocturnal marine world and hidden archaeological features along the cliffs. This evening excursion departs from Marina Grande as the light softens, heading to sheltered coves along the Punta Campanella Marine Protected Area. Your PADI instructor guides you through the transition from daylight snorkeling to torchlit exploration, revealing nocturnal species and behaviors invisible during daytime. The limestone cliffs of Punta Campanella extend directly over the sea, creating underwater caves and formations visible at shallow depth. As darkness falls, different marine life emerges — making this a genuinely unique experience on the Sorrento coast.

What makes this experience unique?
This is one of the only snorkeling experiences on the Sorrento coast that transitions from daylight to darkness. You start snorkeling at sunset, then switch on underwater torches to explore the nocturnal marine world — revealing species and behaviors that are completely invisible during daytime. The atmosphere of snorkeling under the stars along the Punta Campanella cliffs is unforgettable.
What time does it start and when does it end?
Check-in is at 18:30 at the dive center in Marina Grande 186, Sorrento. The experience lasts approximately 2.5 hours, returning to Marina Grande around 21:00 under the stars. Timing adjusts slightly through the season to match sunset.
What nocturnal marine life will I see?
As darkness falls, different species emerge. Using underwater torches, you'll observe nocturnal fish, crustaceans, and invertebrates that hide during the day. The beam of your torch also illuminates the bioluminescence in the water and the hidden details of the limestone caves and archaeological features along the cliffs.
Do I need any experience or certification?
No certification is required. You just need to be able to swim. A PADI instructor accompanies the group throughout, providing safety briefing and guidance on torch use. The experience is suitable for families, though it's recommended for confident swimmers due to the nighttime conditions.
What should I bring?
Just a swimsuit (worn under the wetsuit) and a towel. All equipment including snorkeling gear, wetsuits, and underwater torches is provided. Refreshments are served onboard.
What is the cancellation policy?
Free cancellation up to 48 hours before departure. Weather-dependent — if conditions are not suitable, the center will reschedule to another evening or offer a full refund.
