Boat Trip from Porto to Scandola, Girolata & Piana

Come aboard our boat trip from Porto to Scandola, Girolata, and Piana! Depature from Porto, we will embark on a captivating journey to explore the Scandola nature reserve. It is a pristine and protected area known for its rugged coastline, stunning sea cliffs, and rich biodiversity. The reserve encompasses both land and sea, providing a haven for numerous plant and animal species. Limestone cliffs tower above the crystal-clear waters, creating a dramatic backdrop for the diverse marine life that thrives in the area. The sheer diversity of these natural wonders guarantees an unforgettable adventure. We will then have the pleasure of a 30-minute stopover in Girolata, a charming fishing village accessible only by sea or by foot. Immerse yourself in the authentic atmosphere of this pristine location and delight in its picturesque allure.

Then continue your exploration towards the majestic calanques of Piana, where a breathtaking landscape awaits you. They are made up of towering red granite cliffs, jagged rock formations and crystal-clear turquoise waters. It's a place where the raw beauty of nature meets serenity, leaving visitors in awe of its remarkable scenery.

Finally, we will head off towards Capo Rosso, where you'll discover the Genoese tower of Turghju. These majestic rock formations, shaped by the passage of time, offer breathtaking vistas that immerse you in a truly magnificent landscape. After an exhilarating trip, our captain will return you to the very same place where we began, the port of Porto.
