Things to Do
Running along Italy’s north-western coastline, the region of Liguria is characterised by a narrow strip of land between the Ligurian Sea and the Maritime Alps.

​The geography includes rocky headlands, small bays, and a series of coastal towns that have long been connected by maritime routes.

Boat tours in the region commonly explore stretches such as the Cinque Terre, Portofino, and the Gulf of Poets, with itineraries ranging from short coastal cruises to full-day excursions. Liguria’s varied shoreline, natural harbours, and navigable distances make it well suited to both private charters and organised group tours.
