On board, a light aperitif adds a local touch to your journey at sea.

"Spent a wonderful morning on a boat tour with the Sea Breeze crew, William and Matteo. They did a lovely job of making everyone comfortable and offering insight into the unique characteristics of each town in Cinque Terre. Unfortunately the waters were a little too rough to take a dip, but the day was quite enjoyable. We had focaccia breads and wine on the ride back with music. A great day!"
