Ahh, we had such a beautiful sunset trip today. Thank you to Tom :-) the swim stop was great, prosecco and foccacia enjoying the view of the villages from the sea was fabulous. And a beautiful sunset topped it all off ❤️

A wonderful afternoon
Our guide Simone was fantastic and made the trip a highlight of our visit to the Cinque Terre. Swimming in the Ligurian Sea surrounded by fish was sublime and seeing the beautiful villages from the sea gave us a new appreciation of this beautiful place.

Fun Boat Ride
What a fun, relaxing and easy way to experience the gorgeous Cinque Terre coastline. Check in was quick and efficient. The captain was engaging and took great care of our small group. The swim stop was the right amount of time to enjoy being in the water. The prosecco and freshly baked focaccia were delicious. It’s always fun to meet people from different parts of the world for a shared experience.

Not sure what happened...
Not sure what happened here but we missed the experience that we paid for. We were told to look for a Desiree boat team member, and there wasn’t one. They didn’t even try to contact us and we haven’t been able to get a refund either. Such a shame, we were really looking forward to this experience!

Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cinque Terre can sell out a month out.

What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cinque Terre and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Cinque Terre?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
