A day at sea — how do you want to live it?
Three different ways to discover the Lampedusa coast, with the same care on board.
The Gozzo
A varca — “the boat”, as we say in Lampedusa.
The boat exudes history: it was once a fishing boat. Climb aboard and we'll tell you about its history and that of Lampedusa.
It's an authentic 10-meter cabin-style gozzo, perfect for groups of 15 people. We try to limit the number of guests on board to ensure maximum comfort on board.
Each seat is equipped with comfortable cushions. There are two perfect areas for sunbathing, and there's a large shaded area at the stern.
Who takes you to sea
The faces of Barca Gamar: Natale and Miriam Martello.
Captain and first mate, brother and sister — they are the soul of the boat.
He's a captain in love with the sea who'll sail you along the Lampedusa coast. She'll win you over with her cooking, and with her voice and guitar.
