Secret Gulf of Poets and Cinque Terre by sea

Highlights

  • Departure from our floating base in Passeggiata Morin, La Spezia. We'll sail along the western coast of the Golfo dei Poeti, admiring the villages of the Borgate Marinare till Portovenere, the hidden and unmissable gem, where we'll pass through its "Bocche", the strait between the village of Portovenere and the wild Palmaria Island, from which rises the suggestive church of San Pietro, built into the rock and a UNESCO heritage site. The first relaxing swim of our tour along the Cinque Terre coastline awaits us, in one of the most beautiful coves with crystal-clear waters inaccessible from land. We will set up our inflatable lounger platform in the water to further enhance your comfort. The first village in the Cinque Terre you will see is Riomaggiore, followed by Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and at last Monterosso. You can cherish them all from the sea! Once you arrive in Monterosso you can stop for about 45 minutes with free time to visit the most vibrant village of the Cinque Terre. After the stop, we will leave to return to La Spezia, enjoying Grotta Byron, Torre Scola and the mussel farm.
