If you dream of visiting the Ligurian coast and its hidden corners that can only be reached by sea, from a different point of view, then our boat trip to Porto Venere and Lord Byron's Grotto is for you. Spend a relaxing day and enjoy an apéritif on board with our typical local products.
You can choose a meeting point between La Spezia and Lerici or Porto Venere (the latter only if you select the 5-hour tour). We will pass through the villages of San Terenzo, Lerici, Fiascherino and Tellaro, continuing to Palmaria Island, Tino Island and Tinetto Island, where you will have the opportunity to dive into the azure waters of this area and do some snorkeling. Continuing along the Porto Venere channel, you will admire the beautiful Church of San Pietro overlooking the sea and Lord Byron's Grotto, made famous by the English poet Lord Byron who loved to draw inspiration for writing his works here, while enjoying a rich apéritif of typical Ligurian products and local wine.
We will then continue westwards to admire the natural spectacle of the cliffs of the 'Rocce Rosse' and 'Rocce Nere' sites. We will be able to observe this landscape of inlets and nuances from the comfort of the boat, while the villages of Schiara, Monesteroli and Fossola will peep out. There is a second swimming stop here (if you choose the 5-hour tour), before returning to the starting point.
