ITALY YACHT CHARTER – Portofino and Cinque Terra
Portofino was once a charming fishing village on the rugged East coast of Italy. It’s popularity as a quaint and colorful town has now made it a famous port of call for luxury
yachts, sailboats and charter boats. Portofino is a tiny town of cobble-stone streets, framed by hills of silvery, ancient olive groves. From the top of the hill, the views of the
harbor and coastline are breathtaking. Cafes, boutique shops and gelataria’s spill out into the harbor piazza, which makes it a great place to sit and watch the glamorous yachting
world go by.
Further down the Italian coast, you’ll sail upon ‘Cinque Terra’ – A succession of five coastal villages, all with the same spectacular views of the seas. These villages are less
expensive and sophisticated, than their more popular sister, Portofino. There is a stunning and famous walk along this coastal route, linking the five towns.
This stretch of coastline is a scenic and spectacular charter yacht location and a perfect place to start your exploration of the enchanting Italian coast.
