About Portofino
Portofino's tiny harbour, ringed by pastel houses and steep pine-covered slopes, is best understood from the water — the marine park, the abbey at San Fruttuoso and the coves of the Tigullio coast are all reached by boat. A small-group run such as the Portofino Small-Group Boat Tour to San Fruttuoso & Camogli shows how much coastline fits into a couple of hours, while the Private Boat Charter in Portofino: Discover the Ligurian Coast lets you set the pace along the same stretch.

Frequently asked questions
The village itself is small and quickly walked, but the coastline around it — the Portofino Marine Park, the abbey at San Fruttuoso and the bays toward Camogli — is only really accessible by boat or kayak. Cruises let you swim off the boat, see the headland from below and reach coves with no road access, which is why most visitors treat a boat.
