Boat Trip to Porto Venere & Cinque Terre with Snorkeling

Your holiday in Liguria will never be the same after this boat trip to Porto Venere and Cinque Terre. On our comfortable boat, you can explore the beautiful coastline from Porto Venere to Monterosso and discover astonishing landscapes and cute little villages overlooking the sea.

We will depart from La Spezia or Porto Venere and admire the pastel-coloured houses of Porto Venere, alongside the islands of Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto. We will then head north and navigate around the church of San Pietro and see Lord Byron's Grotto. Once past the cave, we will admire the imposing cliffs of this stretch of coast and take a dip in the bay of Monesteroli, a small village perched on the cliffs and reachable only by a thousand steep steps.

After this refreshing stop, we will admire Riomaggiore, an ancient fishing village. Once past Manarola and Corniglia, we will stop in Vernazza. Here, you will have around 45 minutes to get lost in the narrow streets and take pictures of its colourful houses. Once everyone is back on board, we will head for our last stop off the coast of Monterosso. Don't miss this opportunity for another dip in the pristine waters of this area and discover the underwater world thanks to our snorkeling equipment. We will then return to our starting point, taking in again the beautiful landscape of this stretch of coast.
