Details
Our boat trip from Porto Venere around Palmaria and Tino Islands with lunch is the perfect activity for lovers of good food and breathtaking scenery! If you are lucky enough to find yourself in what is known as the Sesta Terra, come aboard our elegant boat, and be overwhelmed by the beauty of nature in this part of the Ligurian coastline.
Expect numerous stops in the area's most enchanting and lesser-known beaches, during which you can swim, snorkel and have fun with our banana boat. We will take you to visit the enchanting island of Palmaria, with the nearby islets of Tino and Tinetto. If requested, it will also be possible to take a longer break to explore the renowned island's path. To refresh ourselves, an apéritif will be offered during the trip.
Between dips, the highlight of the trip will come: you will be served a rich lunch based on the catch of the day. Our staff will delight you with fresh, traditional seafood dishes and excellent prosecco. Finally, caressed by the wind, we will return to the port of departure.

A very nice tour with locals,
wonderful time, good food and drinks.
Unfortunately, the tour was over very quickly and we didn't see anything of Cinque Terre. The stated times should really be adhered to.
The price is a bit too high!
