Discover the thoroughly evocative setting of Portovenere and her three island gems.

Sit back and savour the spellbinding scenery en route to Portovenere, a picturesque 12th-century fishing village located within the Cinque Terre National Park. Boasting a proud UNESCO pedigree, this enchanting town is filled with tall pastel-coloured houses stretching from the harbour to the hilltop castle. Enjoy some free time exploring the narrow shop-lined medieval streets, and visit the ancient church of St Peter.

Then hop aboard a motorboat and zip across the crystal-clear sea to take in dramatic vistas of the cliff-lined shores Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto, as well as Portovenere from the sea.
