Walk along sandy beaches and rocky paths to visit an ancient necropolis and a World War II bunker, gaining insight into centuries of Mediterranean connections.

After exploring on foot, prepare for an exhilarating swim to underwater archaeological treasures. With provided swim buoys and goggles, you’ll glide through crystal-clear waters to view submerged Roman columns and ancient tombs, easily visible from the surface thanks to excellent water clarity.
