Overview

Come and discover the beauty of Portovenere islands on board my “Blue Taurus”, a typical Ligurian gozzo of 5 metres. If you want to enjoy a day on a boat in the beautiful setting of the Gulf of Poets, away from the stress and crowds of the mainland, then this is the tour for you! We will explore the wild and lush nature of these islands, discover hidden ravines and coves, and dive into their crystal clear waters for a refreshing swim; continuing along the rugged and wild coast you will be enchanted by their imposing cliffs and hidden caves. Do not miss the opportunity to visit Portovenere, a UNESCO World Heritage site and a splendid pearl on the sea, with its colourful tower houses and the small church perched on the cliff.

Activity itinerary

Isola Palmaria (Pass by)
We will discover the first and also the largest of the three islands of Portovenere; you will be fascinated by its high cliffs and hidden caves, you will see the ruins of Torre Scola, an ancient fortress in the middle of the sea, and we will explore coves and beaches accessible only by boat, where their turquoise waters will invite you to a dip for a refreshing swim.
Isola del Tino (Pass by)
Tino, with its lighthouse overlooking the summit, has a lot to tell, between the history of its war bunkers and the legend of the remains of the ancient monastery of San Venerio, protector and lone guardian of the island.
Isola Del Tinetto (Pass by)
Tinetto, the last and smallest island, is accompanied by Stella Maris, the statue of the Virgin Mary, which stands on a rock in the middle of the sea, as if to protect the passing sailors and guardian of these islands.
Grotta di Byron (Pass by)
Behind the promontory of Portovenere hides this picturesque bay, which bears the name of the famous English poet for a local legend.
Portovenere
  • 50m
Do not miss the opportunity to visit one of the most beautiful places in this Gulf. You will immediately fall in love with this picturesque village; this small fishing village perfectly represents the typical fishing village perched on the coast, with its colourful tower houses, the church of San Pietro overlooking the sea and the small "carruggi" (the typical Ligurian alleys) inside. Here history and tradition blend with the present, between ancient taverns, small artisan shops, and fishermen who bring their catch to land. Let yourself be intoxicated by the scent of the sea breeze that permeates the air while eating an ice cream and walking in the “carruggi” of this pearl on the sea.
