Cinque Terre Cruise from Vernazza, Morning to Sunset

This Cinque Terre cruise from Vernazza gives you the coast from the sea, with a choice of when to go: morning, afternoon or sunset. It leaves from Vernazza or Monterosso and lasts two to three hours depending on the option.

The skipper sails close to the shore, so the cliffs and the villages are near, and stops for photos. The big stop is for snorkelling at Guvano Beach, and on a calm day the caves are open to snorkellers too. Masks and snorkelling gear are provided.

• Morning: the quietest part of the day, with the most time for a swim
• Afternoon: a swim too, usually a shorter one
• Sunset: the upgrade, with an aperitif of focaccia and local wine

Your skipper doubles as guide, and shares where to meet once the booking is made. Hotel pickup and drop-off are not included. Children under 5 and people over 95 are not accepted on board. English and Italian are spoken.
