Can we book an evening or sunset cruise in Portofino?

The sunset boat tour with aperitivo is the classic romantic choice: a short early-evening sail with drinks as the harbour lights come on. It is the only dedicated sunset option in the current selection, so it books up quickly in high season. Daytime private charters can also be timed to finish as the light turns golden.

Which Portofino cruise is best for a romantic occasion?

For a proposal or anniversary, a private charter gives you the boat to yourselves and a flexible route along the coast. If you would rather share the moment, the small-group tour to San Fruttuoso and Camogli pairs scenic coves with a relaxed pace, while the boat tour with a pesto-making class and lunch adds a hands-on Ligurian touch.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Several experiences are private charters just for you and your partner, including a three-hour private charter along the Ligurian coast and a four-hour Portofino Riviera tour you can customise. Longer private tours also run from Genoa to Portofino and the marine park, so you can shape the day around the two of you.
