The Route

Inside the Marine Protected Area.

Boarding at Molo Umberto I puts Paraggi within minutes and San Fruttuoso a short crossing away, with Camogli further along the coast — all inside or bordering the Portofino Marine Protected Area.

On Board

More time in the water.

The route is designed around repeated swim stops: calm coves near Paraggi, clear water around San Fruttuoso and, when conditions allow, another swim before Santa Margherita. Snorkeling gear and an unhurried pace leave real time for the sea, not just the transfers.

On the Water

From fishing village to one of Italy's most recognized harbors.

Once a modest fishing village, Portofino became a favorite of European aristocracy and, later, film stars through the early-to-mid 20th century. Its harbor of pastel-colored houses beneath Castello Brown is now one of the most recognized coastal images in Italy — while still a working small-boat harbor at its core.
