2-hour around tour you will discover Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore from a wonderful perspective

Relax and enjoy the nature of the Cinque Terre National Park. During this 2-hour around tour you will discover Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore from a wonderful perspective; and take a leap into the clear waters that characterize our seabed.

Itinerary Highlights

As we leave the Fishermen’s Wharf in Monterosso, the coastline will immediately unfold in all its raw, breathtaking beauty. Sailing at short distance from the shore, every cliff, every terrace,will feel almost within reach and each village will reveal a side of itself that you won’t be able to see from land.

When we reach the last village, Riomaggiore, we will sail back toward Monterosso. From the open sea, the entire Cinque Terre will appear like a single, magical painting suspended between sky and water, and you will feel the quiet thrill of being surrounded by nothing but sea and light.

Along the way, we’ll stop for a swim in secluded coves where you will be able to explore hidden corners of the coast, and maybe encounter the gentle marine life that inhabits these waters.

Our skipper will be a discreet, attentive presence—welcoming you with kindness, helping you to immerse yourself fully in the moment, and remaining at your disposal for any need or desire.

Why book this tour

It’s possible to take the tour with both of our boats, the typical Gozzo Ligure “Popeye” and the fishing boat “Ghibli”, based on needs and availability. Choose the option you prefer to enjoy a unique and personalized experience.

For those who prefer an authentic and traditional experience, the Gozzo Ligure “Popeye” is the ideal choice. Navigating between the waves with elegance and reliability, this boat represents the maritime tradition of our area. The Gozzo Ligure is perfect to explore the Cinque Terre, Portovenere, and the Gulf of Poets, able to accommodate up to 12 people. Equipped with a comfortable sunbathing area, it will allow you to relax and enjoy the sun, while a tent/canopy is also available to protect you during the hottest hours of the day. Come aboard and let the waves cradle you, admiring the beauty of our coast. Our qualified staff will be at your disposition to satisfy every need and to provide you with valuable information about the local history and culture.

For fishing lovers, “Ghibli” is the perfect boat for you. It will allow you to discover the Cinque Terre comfortably on a fishing boat equipped with hoists and nets. Our fishing skipper will provide you with valuable information about our territory, on the various types of fishing practiced in our area and the species of fish that can be caught in our sea. Thanks to tools like the echo sounder, you can observe the seabed from a new perspective. The boat does not have a sunbathing area, but offers comfortable armchairs from which to admire the beauty of our coast, sheltered by a tent/canopy during the hottest hours. With a maximum capacity of 5 persons, “Ghibli” is ideal for those who love tranquility or want to celebrate a special occasion in an intimate setting. Come aboard and enjoy an authentic and relaxing experience with us.

You Will See

Monterosso

Monterosso is an historical seaside village located in the center of a natural gulf. The town is divided in two parts: the old part or historical center, where the boats dock, and the new part, called Fegina, in which one can find the train station and the famous statue of Neptune. Monterosso is less rugged and steep than the other villages of the Cinque Terre and it's the largest.

Manarola

Manarola is perched on a steep promontory of dark rock. It's characterized by traditional Genovese-style “case-torri” (tower houses) facing the main street, which descends toward the marina enclosed by two rock spurs. Furthermore, the village of Manarola is known worldwide for its illuminated Nativity Scene made from salvaged materials. To reach this village by sea, with a boat excursion, it'll let you admire how the colorful houses blend with the landscape, creating an enchanting atmosphere.

Riomaggiore

Riomaggiore is the town farthest south of the Cinque Terre. The houses of Riomaggiore, with its roofs made of slate typical of “case-torri”, are built vertically and beautifully colored, and characterize this narrow village between two steep terraced hills that descends dramatically to the sea. With a boat excursion you'll be able to admire the panorama in its entirety. In Riomaggiore, moreover, begins the “Via dell'Amore” (Path of Love), a path famous for its romantic atmosphere and breathtaking landscape that you can admire from it.

Portovenere

Portovenere, a UNESCO world heritage site, is a medieval village characterized by traditional tall Ligurian houses, narrow and very colorful and facing the harbor. Portovenere is known around the world for its stunning church situated at the top of a promontory on the sea and for the Grotta di Byron, a small natural and rocky bay between the church and the castle wall, named for the English poet who stayed here and drew inspiration for some of his poetry. Reaching Portovenere by sea, with a boat excursion, you be able to admire the whole town, the promontory, the colorful houses, the castle, and San Pietro church.
