Sunset Boat Tour with Aperitif in Portofino: swim in crystal clear waters
Sunset Boat Tour with Aperitif in Portofino: swim in crystal clear waters★★★★★★★★★★ 4.27 (33)1h 30mA 90-minute boat tour departing from Portofino takes you past Santa Margherita Ligure and into Paraggi bay, where you can swim in clear water before anchoring near Portofino's harbor for an aperitif of local wine and appetizers as the sun sets. The captain navigates hidden coves and chooses the anchorage away from boat traffic so the moment stays quiet. A live guide in English or Italian is on board; safety equipment, music, and a sunbathing solarium are included.Is it for me?Book this tour if you have a free afternoon or evening and want to sit still on the water instead of rushing between landmarks—the 90 minutes is short enough to squeeze into a packed day, but long enough that you're not watching the clock. Small groups work best here; the boat holds space for friends to stay together without feeling crowded, and the quiet anchorage near Portofino is built for conversation and the moment itself, not for narration.Free cancellationTravelers' pickKids −19%from€ 75View ›
Portofino snorkeling: private sunset boat tour with aperitif
Portofino snorkeling: private sunset boat tour with aperitif★★★★★★★★★★ 4.57 (30)2hA private boat tour of the Portofino Marine Reserve that departs from Portofino, Paraggi or nearby towns and takes you to three stops — Paraggi, Portofino village and the bay of San Fruttuoso — where you swim and snorkel as the sun sets. The tour runs two hours, includes snorkeling gear and towels, and ends with an Italian aperitivo platter and champagne or cocktails served onboard. A skipper fluent in English and Italian guides the route.Is it for me?Book this tour if you want the Portofino coastline without a crowd — the boat is private, so the pace and the stops are yours, and the aperitivo timing means you're on the water as the light changes instead of watching it from a restaurant table on shore.Free cancellationTravelers' pickfrom€ 205View ›
Private Boat Tour Portofino: Golfo Paradiso & Tigullio
Private Boat Tour Portofino: Golfo Paradiso & Tigullio★★★★★★★★★★ 5.00 (52)7hA private boat tour along the coast near Portofino takes you to San Fruttuoso Abbey, Camogli, and secluded bays where you can swim and snorkel. The boat holds your group alone, your captain narrates the coast's history and fishing traditions, and the day includes snorkeling equipment, local wine, water and snacks. You choose between a half-day (4 hours) or a full day (7 hours) on the water.Is it for me?Book the half-day tour if you want the main sights — Portofino, San Fruttuoso and Camogli — without a full commitment to the water. The full-day version suits anyone who wants to linger in the bays, swim longer and reach the quieter villages that take extra time to reach by boat.from · per group€ 2,400View ›
