Escape hot Rome and experience the wild beauty of Ponza & Palmarola. This small group trip (max 15 people) offers a relaxed way to explore the islands’ stunning coastlines by sea.

Your day begins in Rome with bus transport to Anzio (note: transport is shared with a larger group). From there, take a 1.5-hour ferry to Ponza (ticket: €60, payable at check-in).

In Ponza, board a small boat for a 5-hour cruise with your English-speaking tour leader. Discover hidden coves, dramatic cliffs, sea grottoes, and enjoy swim & snorkel stops in pristine waters. Sea conditions permitting, you may also visit the nearby island of Palmarola.

Savor a fresh lunch of local specialties onboard, prepared by the captain: friselle with tomatoes, seafood pasta, dessert, fruit, water, regional wine, and coffee—served with sea views and great company.

After docking, enjoy free time in Ponza’s lively port. Return by ferry and bus to Rome by 9:00 PM.
