Boat Trip to Porto Venere and Lord Byron's Grotto with Apéritif

If you dream of visiting the Ligurian coast and its hidden corners that can only be reached by sea, then our boat trip to Porto Venere and Lord Byron's Grotto is perfect for you. Spend a relaxing day and enjoy an apéritif on board with our typical local products.

You can choose to depart from La Spezia, Lerici or Porto Venere (the last one 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 and snorkel into the azure waters of this area. Continuing along the Porto Venere waterway, 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 you enjoy a rich apéritif of typical Ligurian products and local wine.

We will then continue westwards to admire the natural spectacle of the cliffs of Rocce Rosse and Rocce Nere sites. Here, we will be able to observe this landscape of inlets and nuances from the comfort of the boat, with glimpses of the villages of Schiara, Monesteroli, and Fossola along the way. There is a second swimming stop here (if you choose the 5-hour tour), before returning to the starting point.
