Full description
In a sea of boats all alike, choose the exception. Yes, because sailing in the Golfo dei Poeti on a pink gozzo is not for everyone!
Set sail to discover a landscape that has inspired artists and dreamers. Together with captain Jenny, you will explore the stretch of sea between Riomaggiore and Portovenere for 3 hours, enjoying it from a decidedly glamorous perspective.
A delicious Ligurian aperitif will make it even more special!
What we will do
The appointment is 5 minutes before the indicated time, at the meeting point in Riomaggiore (SP) . Waiting for us will be skipper Jenny, who will accompany us on this excursion in the Golfo dei Poeti in her pink boat!
From Riomaggiore we will sail towards Portovenere, to admire from the sea its colourful houses overlooking the harbour and the iconic Church of San Pietro, perched on a rocky spur.
We will then coast the three islands of the Gulf of La Spezia: Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto. We will dive into the transparent waters near the cliffs of Le Rosse and near the Cascata del Canneto, where fresh water mixes with salt water. During the two swimming stops, each about 20 minutes long, we will be able to use the snorkelling equipment and floating tubes at will.
On board, we can also enjoy a typical Ligurian aperitif, with delicious focaccia from the oven, a bottle of prosecco for every two people, as well as beer, water, juice or iced tea.
After having had our fill of beauty and relaxation, we will return to Riomaggiore. The activity will last a total of 3 hours.
