Corniglia: the village suspended between sky and sea that is best admired from a boat.
Corniglia is the only village in the Cinque Terre not directly overlooking the sea, and that's precisely what makes it so special. Seen from the sea during Rosa dei Venti 5 Terre Boat Tours excursions, the silhouette of Corniglia appears like a small nativity scene perched on a green cliff, a village that gazes out over the sea with elegance and silence. Sailing from Levanto, you gradually approach the promontory that supports Corniglia, admiring cultivated terraces, paths, and vineyards that harmoniously frame the mountain.
The village's elevated position allows you to grasp its majesty, a perspective that only the sea can fully offer.

“The sea is the mirror of the soul, we go to it when we need it”
A natural setting that tells the story of authentic Liguria
Seen from the boat, Corniglia is a perfect fusion of wild nature and human labor: the terraces supported by dry stone walls, the rows of vines that trace the slope, and the colorful houses that emerge like an oasis between sky and rock.
During the tour, Rosa dei Venti 5 Terre Boat Tours shows guests the coastline below the village, with wind-sculpted cliffs, small hidden coves, and spots where the water takes on intense shades of blue. These features, invisible from land, speak to the strength and authentic beauty of the Ligurian region.
Swimming and snorkeling stops in a wild setting
The waters below Corniglia are among the clearest in the area, perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Since there's no real marina, the area remains quieter and less crowded, ideal for those seeking peace and direct contact with nature.
Stopping here, with the village dominating from above, offers a sense of freedom and silence rarely found elsewhere. A unique way to experience Corniglia, lulled by the sea and admiring the coast in its purest form.
