Have you ever thought of reaching one of the magnificent Cinque Terre by kayak? Our fantastic sea kayak tour from Monterosso to Vernazza offers you a unique point of view on this beautiful little towns, and on the majestic cliffs that characterize this stretch of coast. We will have the possibility to reach Vernazza by kayak and take a stroll between its colourful houses, or if you feel motivated enough, to reach the calm Guvano Beach, where we can enjoy a swim in the sea!
Tour programme- Preparation:We meet at
our base at the Bagni Fegina 30 minutes before the departure time. Please consider reaching us by public transport. You can leave your belongings in our deposit, but we advise you not to bring any valuable items. After a short
briefing about the basics of kayaking, we will head to the sea in groups of up to 8 people.
- Tour:We will paddle along the rocky coast of the Cinque Terre, getting first a
fantastic view of Monterosso by sea. Once past the town, we will admire the cliffs covered in olive trees, vineyards, and vegetable gardens wherever the slopes allow it. After having paddled for around 3 kilometres we will
reach the town of Vernazza, where we will be treated to a breathtaking view of the town's
colourful buildings, the Castel Doria, and the church just by the sea. Here we can decide depending on the group composition and weather conditions whether
to stop in Vernazza or to continue until Guvano Beach. If we choose to stop in the town, we can take a
stroll in its narrow and steep streets or relax on its little beach. If we decide to continue, we paddle to Guvano beach, reachable just by sea or by a steep path, and
swim in its clear waters.
- Return:After either a relaxing stroll or a refreshing swim, we will paddle back to our base, getting a different perspective on the beautiful landscape. Once back at our base, you can change and use the facilities of the Bagni Fegina (cold shower, restroom).
