Full description
It doesn’t get any more traditional than this!
Climb aboard a wooden gozzo in Levanto to experience the authentic charm of Ligurian tradition! With an expert local skipper at the helm, you’ll spend half a day sailing along the coast past the villages of the Cinque Terre to Riomaggiore.
During the trip, you’ll get to take a dip in hidden coves and enjoy a delicious aperitif and local wine. Ready to set sail?
What we will do
We’ll meet 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Levanto (SP). The skipper will be there to welcome us and take us on our gozzo boat trip. After a brief initial briefing, we’ll settle in on board to set sail for the Cinque Terre coast.
We’ll sail past all the famous seaside villages along the coast, admiring them from a unique vantage point. During the trip, the captain will share stories and local traditions with us – he knows the area like the back of his hand! Heading south, we’ll reach Riomaggiore before turning back.
During the trip, we’ll stop at one of the area’s most picturesque coves for a refreshing break. We’ll be able to take a dip for a relaxing swim or go snorkelling using the full kit provided on board to explore the seabed.
The cruise will be enhanced by a delicious aperitif served on board. We’ll sample typical local organic and locally sourced produce, including focaccia, savoury tarts, salami, cheeses and Levanto’s famous gattafin, all accompanied by excellent local wine.
We’ll then return to the starting point. The excursion will last a total of approximately 3½ hours .
