A crewed day out of Portofino

Boarding with skipper: the tiny Portofino harbour — berths are scarce — and Santa Margherita Ligure next door. The itinerary is composed around the day's sea state: San Fruttuoso bay and its Christ of the Abyss, Paraggi’s green cove and Camogli on the far side of the headland.

What the skipper brings on these waters

The crew knows the Portofino marine protected area, a scrub-covered promontory dropping into deep, fish-rich water — they pick the lunch anchorage. Check the fuel policy: billed on actual use, it can reach 20% of the total.

How it works

Rather than juggling four tabs, run one search: the catalogues of Boataround, SamBoat, Click&Boat and GlobeSailor are queried in parallel and the boats in Portofino ranked at the price actually displayed. You then book directly with the operator, at no extra cost. To understand how the platforms differ, here is our comparison.
