Full description
If you believe that the waters of the sea hold fascinating secrets, team up with an experienced skipper and set off on this dinghy tour of thePortofino Protected Marine Area.
In addition to visiting the magnificent Portofino, you can snorkel near the statue of Christ of the Abyss at San Fruttuoso and discover the beauty of its marine habitat.
During the 3½-hour experience, you will also be offered a delicious aperitif of white wine and typical Ligurian products such as focaccia genovese col pesto and fried anchovies.
What we will do
We will meet at the meeting point in Sestri Levante (GE), where our skipper will be waiting for us. We will immediately board the dinghy and start the tour!
First, we will sail to the beautiful Portofino, which will be the perfect backdrop for the photographs we will take on the boat. If we wish, we can go ashore and visit it for about 40 minutes.
Then we will set off again for San Fruttuoso, passing through thePortofino Protected Marine Area and stopping for about 40 minutes near the statue of Christ of the Abyss. This is a bronze monument that has stood on the bottom of San Fruttuoso Bay at a depth of 17 metres since 1954 and is a destination for many scuba divers.
We will take the opportunity to do some snorkelling in a stretch of coastline rich in marine species to observe: the skipper will accompany us into the water and show us around the area.
Once back on board the boat, we will head for a cove not far from San Fruttuoso, where we will have an hour for a last swim and a delicious aperitif based on white wine and typical Ligurian products such as Genoese focaccia with pesto and fried anchovies.
The experience, which will last a total of 3.5 hours, will end with the return to the starting point.
