Private boat tour on the Portofino Riviera
Overview
A whole day on a private boat, just you and your skipper, among the pearls of the Gulf of Tigullio. We leave from Rapallo, or we can pick you up in Santa Margherita Ligure or Portofino.
It hugs Santa Margherita up to the emerald bay of Paraggi and Portofino, with time for a stroll in the piazza. Then the Abbey of San Fruttuoso, which can only be reached by sea or on foot, a swim in the crystal-clear waters of Punta Chiappa and the colorful village of Camogli.
At midday, we stop for lunch at one of the best restaurants on the coast (not included: the skipper helps you book). On board you will find drinks, beer, and a bottle of Prosecco, beach towels, and snorkeling equipment.
Choose the boat suitable for your group, from the Soleil 18 for 6 people to the Lipari 31 for 12.
