About Liguria

Liguria's coastline is made for families: short crossings between colourful villages, calm bays where children can swim, and boats that turn a simple crossing into the day's highlight. A gentle option is the Portovenere: Palmaria, Tino & Tinetto Islands Boat Tour in the Gulf of Poets, which keeps everyone entertained without a long day at sea, while the Cinque Terre Guided Boat Cruise from Levanto/Monterosso with Swim & Prosecco adds a swimming stop that children love and a glass for the grown-ups.

Frequently asked questions

Short durations, calm sheltered waters and swim stops are what matter most. Tours like the Gulf of Poets islands crossing last around an hour and a half, so younger children are not stuck on board for long, while longer Cinque Terre cruises let families combine sightseeing with a proper swim.
