About Riomaggiore

Riomaggiore's tiny harbor, stacked pastel houses and steep vineyard terraces make it the most intimate starting point in Cinque Terre for a couple's boat trip. Sunset is when the village turns golden, and the Riomaggiore: Cinque Terre Sunset Cruise with Wine & Focaccia pairs that light with local wine and focaccia on a short two-hour sail. For a longer day on the water with an open bar, food and a swimming stop, the Cinque Terre & Portovenere Boat Cruise with Open Bar, Food & Swim is the highest-rated option departing from the area.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Several operators running out of Riomaggiore and nearby La Spezia offer private or small-group charters on traditional Ligurian gozzi and hybrid boats, which suit couples who want their own skipper, flexible timing and a quieter deck. Group sunset cruises are also available and stay intimate because passenger numbers are limited.
