Discover the quieter side of the Italian Riviera during a private morning experience aboard a comfortable sailing yacht.
Meet your skipper at Marina di Lavagna and step aboard an Elan Impression 384. After a welcome and safety briefing, leave the harbour and begin cruising across the Tigullio Gulf.
The morning is one of the most peaceful times to experience this part of Liguria. Enjoy the fresh sea air, calm atmosphere, and coastal views before the beaches and bays become busy with the activity of the day.
Travel along the coast toward the Portofino promontory, passing views of Chiavari, Zoagli, Rapallo, and Santa Margherita Ligure according to the selected route and conditions. The yacht may travel under sail or motor depending on the wind.
Settle into the spacious outdoor areas, sunbathe on deck, listen to music, or simply enjoy watching the coastline from the water.
During the experience, enjoy an Italian-style breakfast served on board. Taste fresh Ligurian focaccia accompanied by pastries, seasonal fruit, coffee, juice, mimosas, water, and other non-alcoholic drinks.
Stop in a sheltered area selected by the skipper, where you can swim directly from the yacht and cool off in the Ligurian Sea. After swimming, relax on board with another coffee or a refreshing drink while enjoying the scenery.
This experience is designed for couples, families, and small groups looking for a gentle and unhurried start to the day. Rather than following a packed sightseeing schedule, the morning is centred on privacy, swimming, local flavours, and time spent together at sea.
The precise route and swimming location are decided on the day according to wind, sea conditions, maritime traffic, and guest comfort. Views of Portofino are expected when conditions permit, but entering Portofino harbour is not part of the experience.
Return to Marina di Lavagna around midday, with the rest of the afternoon free to explore the Riviera by land.
