La Spezia: Dream boat tour to the Cinque Terre

Come discover the magic of the Cinque Terre aboard Illusione, a one-of-a-kind gozzo. Comfort, simplicity and elegance are perfectly blended to make your experience unique.

I will be waiting for you at one of the meeting points aboard Illusione, a unique Ligurian gozzo. Once on board, we will sail quietly along the coast to Portovenere with its typical colorful houses, a real pearl on the sea! We will reach the stunning Church of San Pietro, Lord Byron's Grotto and Le Rosse, a magical place where the water becomes crystal clear. Here we will make a relaxing stop where it will be possible to dive and snorkel in the crystal clear waters that characterize this stretch of coastline. Excellent local food will be served accompanied by good wine or other drinks, with your favorite music playing in the background. We will continue the trip to Scoglio Ferale, a pyramid-shaped rock that emerges 30 meters high; we will pass through the stretch between the rock and the coast where an area of shallow water is created and it will be beautiful to admire the color of the sea and the rocky seabed. We will continue on to Monesteroli, an old village overlooking the sea and then enter the marine protected area of the Cinque Terre. We will sail to the first village of the Cinque Terre, Riomaggiore, pass the famous Via dell'Amore, recently restored to slowly arrive in Manarola. The experience continues with Corniglia and Vernazza until we reach Monterosso. Here we will make a 1.5-hour stop to allow you some time to have lunch or take a walk along the narrow streets of the village. Once back on board, we will depart for La Spezia. On the way back, I will choose a suitable place to make one last relaxing stop with a chance to take a last swim in our crystal clear waters. Local food and alcoholic/alcoholic beverages will not be missed! Don't miss the opportunity to book the tour of your dreams in Cinque Terre! I look forward to seeing you on board! N.B. Weather and sea conditions may affect the tour itinerary. As captain, I take responsibility for recommending changes to the itinerary to ensure the safety of everyone on board. In the event of weather and sea conditions that do not allow the tour to be completed, it will still be possible to disembark and visit the typical villages of the Gulf of Poets such as Portovenere and Lerici, must-see destinations if you visit our lands.
