About the experience

Departing from Lavagna, this full-day cruise aboard the Gianetti 48 HT is a journey along one of Liguria’s most poetic and fascinating coastlines. It’s a route where nature, history, and legend come together—cliffs plunging into clear waters, colorful villages suspended in time, and mysterious islands waiting to be discovered.

The experience begins with a scenic navigation past the Rocce Rosse, a stretch of crimson cliffs where the contrast between rock and sea is striking. It’s the perfect place to pause and swim, surrounded by silence and the raw energy of nature.

Your course then brings you to Vernazza, a treasured corner of the Cinque Terre. Approaching it by sea offers a unique perspective: pastel houses rise from the cliffs, boats rock gently in the small port, and the stone tower above seems to guard this timeless village.

From here, the coastline softens as you enter the legendary Gulf of Poets, named after the artists and writers who were enchanted by its beauty. In Portovenere, dramatic landscapes meet medieval charm—narrow alleys, cliffside churches, and ancient walls that look out to sea.

The journey continues toward the islands of Palmaria, Tino, and Tinetto, each offering something different: wild beaches, hidden coves, and untouched landscapes. Cruising among these islets feels like entering a secret archipelago—intimate, authentic, and far from the crowds.

This experience blends exploration, elegance, and emotion into a day you’ll never forget.

    Our large group which ranged from small children to seniors had a spectacular experience from start to end. The Click & Boat team did a great job facilitating the connection and Andrea was very professional, responsive, timely, flexible and courteous. He and his crew member Mattia showed us a truly wonderful day on the sea with wonderful itinerary recommendations. Getting in/out of small ports and on/off boat was very easy. It was very clear Andrea has extensive experience navigating the waters and was masterful both as a Captain and as a professional service. Highly recommend this experience and we look forward to another boating experience with Andrea again in the future!

    I could not have asked for more from Andrea and his team. I had proposed to my fiancé on board and the experience was incredible! Aside from the amazing service, beautiful boat and surroundings, Andrea was a pleasure to work with. For months after I booked my excursion, Andrea communicated with me to organize food, drink, photography, agenda and more! He was extremely accommodating and flexible. If you are looking for a beautiful experience with full transparency, A+ service and communication, Andrea and his yacht are for you. Thank you again, my fiancé and I will hold this memory dear for our entire lives!!

    Andrea was an excellent skipper, with great local knowledge allowing us to find beautiful calm waters on a windy day. Pick up and drop off of friends was no problem. We cruised the coast of Santa Margherita, Portofino and Camogli. Delicious snacks of fruit, salami and cheese was provided, along with water, soft drinks, beer, etc. Towels and snorkelling gear also provided. Boat was fantastic, as it offers protection from the front, with sunbeds on the back to enjoy the sun. Andrea was incredibly friendly, and easy to communicate with and made great suggestions for a beautiful day on the water.

    Andrea was absolutely great. We rent boats all the times in Italy and his professionalism was impressive. A beautiful boat with an awesome crew. We enjoyed the ride from La Spezia to Camogli and he made our day! We stop in Portofino and several time to swim in nice areas. Would definitily use his service again. Grazie Andrea!?
