Full description
Embark on a sailing weekend and spend unforgettable moments on the Ligurian Riviera, among the emerald sea, the blue sky and the colourful villages of the Levante region.
Set sail from Genoa's old harbour and let the wind blow you towards Camogli, San Fruttuoso and Portofino, stopping off at the most picturesque bays to swim and admire the view.
Put yourself in the hands of an experienced skipper to enjoy pleasant sailing, stopping off at the most beautiful spots and experiencing Liguria's charm to the full.
What we will do
The rendezvous is on Friday in the late afternoon or evening at the old port of Genoa. We will get to know the skipper, who will show us the services and facilities of the sailing boat. We will then organise the galley with provisions for the weekend and, if we wish, take a tour of the historic centre of the Superba, before returning to the boat for an overnight stay.
On Saturday morning we will wake up early to have breakfast and start sailing towards the Levant. Leaving the port of Genoa, we will head towards the beautiful Abbey of San Fruttuoso, a religious architectural complex that has the peculiarity of standing right on the beach.
From San Fruttuoso we will then move on to Portofino to visit one of the Ligurian Riviera's most exclusive resorts, and if we do not want to get off the boat we can simply stay on board and enjoy the marvellous view of the harbour.
On Sunday morning we will calmly set off again to discover other evocative coastal views until we turn back to Genoa, not before stopping in Camogli, another unmissable village in eastern Liguria.
During the two days of sailing, those who wish can be involved by the skipper in the management of the boat to learn the basic principles of sailing. Otherwise, one can simply enjoy the sailing among sun, sea, diving and splendid views.
