During this experience you’ll hike through spectacular landscapes filled with tropical vegetation before reaching an isolated beach that remains unknown to most tourists.

 

Once there, you’ll have plenty of time to relax, swim and explore the underwater world while snorkeling in the clear Mediterranean Sea.

Because the tour visits locations away from the busiest beaches, you’ll enjoy a much more peaceful and authentic experience.

Alfonzo was awesome! He is very talkative and knows what he is doing. Lots of really cool learning opportunities about the vegetation and different terrain. The beach and snorkeling was the best part! Amazing views during the hike. Highly recommend.
