About this activity

Escape the heat of Rome for a day on the stunning island of Ponza.

A one hour transfer in an air-conditioned vehicle will take you from central Rome to the coast. From there, board a fast ferry for the 1.5-hour crossing to Ponza (ferry ticket €60 per person, payable at check-in).

In Ponza, set off on a 5-hour shared boat tour around Ponza’s spectacular coastline. The motorboat has a bathroom, a kitchen, cooler, cushioning, seating, a sun deck and shaded area. Cruise past dramatic cliffs, sea caves, and hidden coves as your tour leader shares insights about the island’s history and geology. Along the way, enjoy several stops to swim and snorkel. Bring your own snorkel gear or rent in advance by selecting the option when booking.

Relax onboard with a freshly prepared pasta lunch served picnic-style, accompanied by water, local wine, and an espresso.

After the boat tour, enjoy an hour of free time to explore Ponza’s charming harbor.

Arrive back in Rome at approximately 9:00 PM.
