About this trip

OUR TOURS

The FIRST TOUR includes a cruise along the entire coast of the Gulf of Poets, passing through the villages of Le Grazie, Santerenzo, Lerici, Tellaro, and Portovenere, circumnavigating the three islands of Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto.

The SECOND TOUR includes a cruise towards the Portovenere Channel, exiting the inlets to reach the countless coves along the rugged coastline toward the Cinque Terre, arriving at the edge of the Cinque Terre Marine Protected Area (there is no entry into the Cinque Terre National Park). The coves offered for stops are accessible only by boat.

During the tours, stops will be made for a refreshing swim in the most picturesque bays.

For each tour, the skipper will offer a welcome drink (1 bottle for every 4 people) with snacks.

THE BOAT The boat is a Baia speedboat from the 1980s. Its classic lines and fully teak deck make it charming and particularly welcoming. It is fast and very comfortable, powered by a pair of 250-horsepower diesel engines. Its dimensions, 8.30 meters long and 3.30 meters wide, make it extremely livable both inside and out, safe and comfortable to sail. The boat can accommodate up to 8 guests. The interior is divided into two cabins: the spacious master cabin with a double berth and sink unit is perfect for changing clothes and storing your personal items. The second cabin is a small, separate bathroom with a porthole to the outside.

The exterior is where you can fully enjoy the boat's space. At the stern, there's a splendid, generously sized sundeck that spans the entire width of the boat, complete with cushions and can comfortably accommodate four people lounging.

The cockpit forward of the sundeck is complete with seating, a table, stove, refrigerator, and helm station and is covered by an awning. The awning can be extended to the stern, creating shade over the entire sundeck if needed.

At the stern, there's a large swim platform for access to the sea, equipped with a freshwater shower. The foredeck, entirely made of teak, can comfortably accommodate two more people lying down. There's also a freshwater shower in the bow.

The boat is equipped with an audio system with external speakers.
