Full description
Some days you just need to feel like a Very Important Person. So we thought we'd accommodate you!
Get ready for an 8-hour dinghy tour that will take you to the most exclusive destinations on the Ligurian Riviera, from the Cinque Terre National Park to Portofino.
The friendliness of the skipper and a tasty Ligurian aperitif will turn a simple day into a collection of wonderful memories!
What we will do
The appointment is at 10: 00 a. m. at the meeting point in La Spezia (SP) . Awaiting us will be the skipper who will accompany us on our excursion!
Climbing aboard the dinghy, we will cross the Gulf of Poets and pass the splendid Portovenere, before entering the Cinque Terre National Park. Before our eyes, the colourful villages of Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso will parade in succession.
We will continue our navigation northwards, passing through the Bay of Silence in Sestri Levante and the famous San Fruttuoso beach with its abbey, until we reach the elegant Portofino. In agreement with the skipper, we may decide to make a maximum of three stops ashore (up to one hour for each) to visit Portovenere, Monterosso or take a stroll through Portofino's 'Piazzetta', much loved by the jet-set.
Between stops, we will also stop for a refreshing swim of about 30 minutes in the Cinque Terre or Portofino area, depending on the weather and sea conditions. On board, the 'dolce vita' will continue with a rich aperitif based on Ligurian products such as focaccia, pesto and vegetable pies, accompanied by prosecco, beer or Spritz.
We will finally return to the port of departure. The activity will last about 8 hours (duration may be reduced depending on seasonal light hours) .
