3 Hour One-Way Sunset Boat Tour from Monterosso to La Spezia
Our shared one-way sunset tour from Monterosso to La Spezia is a perfect opportunity to not only see the beauty of the Cinque Terre by sea, but to take in the splendour of the twilight hours while cruising along the coast towards Portovenere and the Gulf of the Poets! Departing from Monterosso, we will pass by all five villages of the Cinque Terre before heading down the coast. There will be time to stop and swim in one of the crystalline coves along the way before reaching the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Portovenere with its very particular narrow coloured houses and the breathtaking St. Peter’s Church. We will also take you into Byron’s Grotto, one of the most treasured places along the Ligurian coast. With the stunning backdrop of Portovenere, we will await the sunset while enjoying an aperitivo featuring local pesto and fresh focaccia. This tour also includes service of local wine, beer, water and soft drinks.
