EXPERIENCE THE CHARM OF LIGURIA ON A CINQUE TERRE YACHT CHARTER
Tourists love Liguria and its Cinque Terre, the Five Lands, for its mix of experiences and beautiful attractions. The coast, stretching out for more than 300 kilometers, is backed by a plush hinterland peppered with amazing villas immersed in the Mediterranean nature. Food and wine tours abound in this land of traditions, where you can also dip into some of the dreamiest spots of the Mediterranean while on your Cinque Terra yacht charter, and go on energetic hikes opening onto arresting vistas, like those of the gulfs of Tigullio and Poeti.
Enjoy a Liguria yacht charter
In Genoa embark on a luxury Liguria yacht rental, sailing out to Riviera di Ponente and Monaco, or to Riviera di Levante and La Spezia.
Aim your vessel in the direction of Cinque Terre and its quaint towns. Start your day in Monterosso in its old part and wander through small streets with multi-coloured houses and the typical stone staircases. In the afternoon, head over to the new district of the town and take a relaxing drink at the arguably best beaches of all of Cinque Terre. In the next town, Vernazza, wander through terraces of olive trees and enjoy the quietness of the old town, where cars are banned. In Corniglia, pay a visit to the beautiful, historic church of San Petro before enjoying a gourmet lunch in one of its many restaurants. Next, take some time to explore the smallest of the Cinque Terre towns: Manarola. Not only can you admire the famous Groppa river from here, but the town also has a rich history of producing grapes for the famous Cinque Terre wines. Try some of them here, before continuing on your ligurian yacht charter to Riomaggiore. Here, active yacht charter guest can hike up the panoramic trail to Santuario di Nostra Signora di Montenero, an 11th century monastery overlooking the town. Alternatively, take in the beauty of Riomaggiore’s pastel colored houses, surrounding vineyards and crystal clear waters as part of your cinque terre yacht charter.
The chicest destinations are, however, Portofino and Rapallo. The former is a haven of sophistication and discretion for luxury yachters, where they can have a coffee and indulge in luxury shopping at the best international ateliers that line the narrow streets of the former fishermen village. The world of yachting meets here to spend the summer and unwind at the most exclusive clubs of the Tyrrhenian coast.
