Pause in front of Portovenere’s stunning skyline and sip our signature Dolcevita aperitivo—lovingly prepared each day by our partner, Viva la Vida.

Activity itinerary

Torre Scola (Pass by)

As you pass Torre Scola, you'll admire this solitary stone sentinel rising from the sea. Built in the 17th century to guard the Gulf, its weathered walls and dramatic setting evoke tales of pirates, battles, and lost time—an iconic and poetic fragment of maritime history.

Isola Palmaria (Pass by)

Passing by Palmaria Island, you'll admire its wild nature, hidden coves, and crystal-clear waters—an untouched paradise just across from Portovenere, perfect for swimming and photos.

Isola del Tino (Pass by)

As you glide by Isola del Tino, the setting sun bathes the majestic San Venerio lighthouse—one of the few still active in the Mediterranean—in golden light. Its beacon, guiding sailors since the 19th century, flickers tenderly across the waves. Below, the crumbling monastery ruins whisper of ancient devotion, while the echoes of WWII bunkers and hidden military installations lend a poignant drama to this secluded isle’s timeless charm.

Isola Del Tinetto (Pass by)

Sailing by the tiny island of Tinetto, you'll glimpse the remains of an ancient monastery nestled among the rocks, kissed by sea spray and time. This peaceful, uninhabited islet—part of a UNESCO site—feels suspended between sky and sea, a silent guardian of centuries-old spiritual devotion.

Portovenere

  • 15m
As the boat slows and stops in front of Portovenere, guests can savour their Dolcevita aperitivo while taking in the enchanting view: pastel houses cascading to the sea, the Doria Castle watching from above, and the Church of St. Peter perched on the cliff’s edge—where land meets legend and the light dances on the waves like poetry in motion.

Borgata Marinara Di Cadimare (Pass by)

Just before returning to port, you’ll pass the picturesque borgata marinara of Cadimare, with its quaint waterfront and colourful fishing boats. Beyond it looms the Arsenale Militare, a hidden city within the city—off-limits, mysterious, and steeped in naval history. Its silent presence adds a final touch of charm and intrigue to your journey.
