The famous Cinque Terre is a beloved tourist area of Italy known for a series of five picturesque towns located along the coastline. Many who find a vacation rental in the Cinque Terre will drive or even hike between the different towns to take them in and enjoy the various attractions in each. However, we think if you’re really going to explore and make the most of this magical part of the world, then the best way to get around is certainly by boat!
Depending on your budget, your tastes, and the amount of time you have to spend on the activity, there are a variety of different options when it comes to boat trips and excursions in the Cinque Terre. You can take the different ferries between various towns along the coast to simply get from A to B in a more romantic and picturesque manner. Or, you could hire a boat yourself or book onto a private boat tour to take in some or all of the area in a more leisurely and luxurious style. You could also rent kayaks at various beaches along the coast. It really is all up to you!
Companies like Cinque Terre Adventure offer a range of different packages from private to group tours, 2 to 6 hour to whole-day outings, sunset tours, tours with wine-tastings, and much more besides, as well as simply taking the option of renting a kayak from them or joining one of their kayak tour packages. Then there are the local ferries that leave from Levanto, La Spezia, and Portovenere to the villages of the Cinque Terre and stop in Monterosso, Vernazza, Manarola, and Riomaggiore and can be used with round-trip tickets or one-way tickets with intermediate stops.
So, come and book one of our villas in the Cinque Terre and then plan to see this beautiful corner of the world in the most idyllic way possible!
