# 3-Hour Private Boat Tour of the Cinque Terre

**Guidekin's take:** A private boat for your party on a traditional gozzo out of Monterosso, with a wide sundeck and a stop at Cannetto beach where a freshwater waterfall runs down to the sea. Pesto with focaccia, water, beer, local wine and snorkelling gear are on board, though that tasting is a snack rather than a meal. 4.9 from 70 reviews at €200 per person.

**Want more time?:** Book the private gozzo with a Cannetto beach stop and pesto: 3h at €200 per person, 4.9 from 70 reviews; minimum two guests. Trade-off: Pesto and focaccia are a snack, not a meal. (last checked September 15, 2026)

## Overview

This traditional Ligurian gozzo departing directly from Monterosso offers a unique way to experience the beauty of the Cinque Terre in style. The large sundeck is perfect for relaxing while admiring breathtaking views and exploring the secrets of this unique coast and for those who want to enjoy the sea intensely. The tour will pass in front of all the five villages (the Cinque Terre), the Cannetto beach with its fresh water waterfall, with time to stop, relax and take magnificent photos, a unique opportunity to swim in our turquoise sea and to discover and explore our famous little inaccessible coves. Finally, on board our boat we will offer a tasting of our famous "Pesto Cinque Terre" and our Focaccia.

Water, local wine and beer will be available during the tour.
