Semi-Private Cinque Terre Boat Tour from Monterosso
Cruise past Vernazza, Corniglia, and Riomaggiore, stop to swim, and savor a local aperitif on board
3 h
Max 13 Guests
The problem with exploring Cinque Terre on foot is that you're too close to see the cliffside drama that makes it famous. This semi-private boat tour fixes that by taking you out on the Mediterranean, where all five colorful villages reveal themselves against dramatic cliffs and terraced vineyards. Midway through, dive into crystal-clear waters at a beach accessible only by boat, then relax with a Ligurian aperitivo. It's how you actually see what makes this Italian Riviera stretch world-famous.

Itinerary
Meet your guide at the Monterosso boarding dock
Your journey begins at the main ferry dock in Monterosso. Meet your professional skipper and assistant before boarding an Italian boat, designed for an intimate small group of up to twelve guests.
Monterosso al Mare
Leaving the harbor, gain a panoramic perspective of Monterosso al Mare, the largest of the five Cinque Terre villages. See the wide, colorful beach and the buildings spiraling up the hillside from the privileged position of the Mediterranean Sea.
Cruise the Cinque Terre National Park
The cruise leads you south through the Cinque Terre National Park, a UNESCO-listed region where centuries-old terraced vineyards cling to steep cliffs. Learn about the region's unique geography and the history of its famous coastal settlements.
Stop for a swim
The boat will stop at the most beautiful secluded beach on the Cinque Terre coast, accessible only by sea. Enjoy the crystal-clear waters of the Ligurian Sea with a refreshing swimming stop, or simply soak up the sun and sip a drink on board.
Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore
Hop back aboard to glide past the remaining four villages, starting with Vernazza, noted for its natural harbor. Next, observe Corniglia, perched high atop the cliffs. Continue to Manarola, famous for its houses on jagged cliffs and lush vineyards. Finally, approach Riomaggiore, a coast-side village tightly packed into a ravine.
