Cinque Terre Tours with
Rosa dei Venti from Levanto
"Throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover" - Mark Twain
Hi, I'm Marco, and I want to welcome you to my world, a world of sea, wind, and freedom.
The experiences you'll enjoy with Rosa dei Venti 5 Terre Boat Tours are born from a dream I've held dear since I was a child.
I was born and raised in Levanto, a place that more than many others reminds you that nature is home, but it is also a teacher.
Its cliffs, its sunsets, and the salty scent that fills the houses are part of my story, and I hope, after an experience on our boats, it can be part of yours too.
Here you will live a unique experience, you will see everything through my eyes, my heart, my experiences and my passion.
If you want, I'll be happy to take you with me.
We also speak English and French on board.

"It's madness to hate all roses because a thorn pricked you, to abandon all your dreams because one of them didn't come true..."


Marco, The Captain
Since I was a child, I understood that there are two realities: the one we live every day, made up of habits, commitments, and unwritten rules, and the one that arises in dreams.
And it's precisely by chasing those dreams that I found myself here, realizing what I had imagined when the world still seemed infinite: bringing people to experience the sea, not just look at it.
Among my many passions, from scuba diving to free flight, I've discovered that, in different ways, both bring me back to the same feeling: the sensation of being suspended between sky and sea, between freedom and wonder.
I think this is what I want to give you: a moment when time seems to stand still and the child you were once again smiles at you, as it still happens to me today, when my gaze gets lost in the waves searching for who knows what...
I truly hope that during these excursions you can find the courage, serenity, and desire to always defend your dreams.
Because as the sea teaches, we decide the route.

Explore the Cinque Terre from a new perspective
The Cinque Terre are a rare gift: a place where man has learned to live in harmony with nature, building villages suspended above the sea, cultivated terraces, breathtaking trails, and traditions that have endured over time. But few know that the best way to truly admire this heritage is from the sea.
With Rosa dei Venti Boat Tours you won't experience the classic "tourist tour": you will have an authentic, intimate and personal experience.
Our excursions are designed to immerse you in the true spirit of this area, with anecdotes, tales of the sea, typical local products, and hidden places that only those born here truly know.
From morning brunch on board to afternoon tours of bays and coves, to golden sunsets and nights illuminated by music, each tour is a journey into the beauty and roots of Liguria. My goal is not just to show you these places, but to make you feel a part of them.
An experience that will remain in your heart
With these tours, my goal is to share my emotions and traditions with you. I'll take you to the bays and coves where I was born.
As you sail, you'll be captivated by the beauty of the coast, the crystal-clear waters, and the low-flying seagulls that accompany us on our journey. You'll admire the myriad colors of the Cinque Terre, swim in the Marine Park, toast the sunset with a glass of Levanto Vermentino, and savor some carefully selected, local organic produce. I'm convinced that this will leave a lasting impression.
Sailing the Pequod and Eolo, my and my brother Roberto's boats, means becoming part of a story, mine, yours.


Why choose our boat tours?
Exclusive, authentic and never crowded tours
Each trip is designed for small groups, allowing you to explore the sea in peace.
I'll take you on a journey of diverse emotions, all meticulously crafted and meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail: from the music to the selection of products, from the bathroom breaks to the little stories that make each location unique.
Tradition, roots, and love for Liguria
I was born and raised in this area.
The excursions I propose are a way to share what I've learned: respect for the sea, the value of traditions, the beauty of our coasts and our villages.
They say about us
The captain, Marco, is a true dreamer and tells us the history of the Cinque Terre in French. We take advantage of the opportunity to stop a few times to swim among the fish. The boat is small but sufficient (we were three families of four and had plenty of room). We also enjoyed delicious desserts upon arrival, followed by focaccia, sausage, and cheese for brunch. In short, an absolute must-do; it's a clever way to round off the Cinque Terre excursion!

We took a tour with Rosa dei Venti during a family vacation in Italy last June. It was the highlight of our trip! The driver and guide were generous and knowledgeable; everyone had a great time. We highly recommend this experience to anyone considering it.

Mark and Stephen are fantastic. They're passionate about their work and love their sea. We took the sunset tour from Punta Mesco to Framura and the next day to the Cinque Terre. Excellent local specialties and plenty of wine and drinks.
