The Libeccio 8.5 from above at golden hour, open water around it

Cala Ponte Marina · Polignano a Mare

THE SEA,
AS IT SHOULD BE FELT

A private gozzo, ten guests, a day that includes everything.

Not a tour. Not a cruise. A return.

The Boat — Gozzo Mimì Libeccio 8.5 Cabin

The deck: teak, cushions, shade

Room to breathe.

01 / 03 — THE SPACE

Room to breathe.

Wood, teak, cushions, shade. Ten guests at most — never one more. The deck stays wide. So does the silence.

02 / 03 — THE CABIN AND THE TOILET

A real cabin. A real toilet.

A double cabin at the bow, for resting. And a private toilet, separate — on a full day at sea, that is no small thing.

The private toilet, separate

03 / 03 — THE DETAILS

The shade, the teak, the small things.

The awning opens when the sun leans in. Cold water, clean towels, a shaded seat always. Care is anticipating.

Never more than ten guests.

The Day

The Day

09:00

The day opens.

Lines off at Cala Ponte Marina. The coast begins to slide by at gozzo pace, and the water is at its clearest — the first long swim comes early.

The Polignano coast from the water, morning

12:30

The long anchor.

Midday is for staying put: swimming, paddling, lunch in a sheltered cove. At least half of every departure is at anchor — a number, not a vague promise.

The same coast at midday

17:00

The stone warms.

The afternoon runs slow along the cliffs — snorkelling in the coves, the caves by paddle when the sea allows, nothing hurried.

The same coast at five in the afternoon

19:30

The golden hour.

The light drops and the aperitivo comes out — prosecco, taralli, olives — while Polignano turns gold from the water. The day closes as it opened: quietly.

The Caves — the summit of the day

The boat never enters the caves. You do — in silence, on the water, by paddle.

Every boat here drives into the caves. Ours stops outside: you enter on your own power, on the boards, when the sea allows.

Included on every departure — no extra cost.

The Skipper

Angelo, at the helm.

Angelo — Skipper
“I’ve read this sea all my life. My job is that you never have to think about it.”

Safety, said simply: vests and leashes for the paddle, a guide in the water with you, and the skipper has the final word — always. Ten guests at most.

The real questions

Do we go inside the caves?

The boat comes close and waits outside — always. The boat never enters the caves. You do — in silence, on the water, by paddle. When the sea allows it, you go in on the boards, with vests, leashes and a guide in the water beside you. When it doesn’t, we tell you plainly: the route runs longer, the swim and snorkel stops move to sheltered coves — and the day stays whole.

And if the sea says no?

If the sea cancels, you choose: full refund or another departure — your pick, no penalty, decided by 07:30 that morning. We write to you first.

What does the price include?

Unlimited SUP boards, masks, towels, water and ice, the aperitivo, the shade, the cabin and toilet, skipper and fuel, ten photos of your day on WhatsApp. The price is for the boat, never the seat: the same for two guests or ten. If it’s aboard, it’s yours.

Can children come?

Yes. Vests in every size aboard, an easy ladder, shade for a nap. Il Pomeriggio is the departure families love: the warmest water and the longest stops.

How much time do we actually spend in the water?

At least half of every departure is at anchor — swimming, paddling, eating, or doing nothing. A number, not a vague promise: the day belongs to you, not to the engine.
