About Monterosso al Mare
Monterosso al Mare is the Cinque Terre's largest village and the one with a proper sandy beach, which makes it the natural departure point for seeing the coastline from the water rather than from a crowded trail. Boats leave the harbour and head straight for the cliffs, terraced vineyards and hidden coves that only open up from the sea, whether you join the Cinque Terre Boat Tour with Skipper & Ligurian Focaccia or time your outing for golden hour on the Cinque Terre Sunset Tour on a Traditional Ligurian Gozzo.

Frequently asked questions
From the water you see the Cinque Terre as a single continuous coastline: sheer terraced cliffs, sea caves and coves that the coastal path never reaches. Departing from Monterosso means you start at the western end and sail toward Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore, with swimming stops and open views rather than tunnel or train windows.
