Cinque Terre: Guided Boat Tour

Visit the Cinque Terre coast by boat and view the vineyards and buildings from the sea. Stop in Portovenere, then Monterosso and Vernazza along the way.

Depart from the port of La Spezia and sail through the Gulf of Poets.

Sail to Portovenere and see the beauty of the village. In Monterosso al Mare, explore the medieval historic center and the parish church dedicated to St. John the Baptist.

Afterward, continue sailing towards Vernazza, the pearl of the Cinque Terre. Vernazza appears to visitors like the bow of a ship; most of the town is in fact built on a small promontory that ends at the sea with an imposing fortification system.

At the end of the tour, spend some free time sampling local wines and foods for lunch, or take a swim in the crystal-clear Mediterranean water before returning to La Spezia.
