After my many years with Angelo's Boat Tours, I am super excited about my next adventure - Bel Mar Boat Tours!
I still remember my first visit to the Cinque Terre and how awe-struck I was of its beauty. It was my first trip to Italy and my travel agent suggested I add the Cinque Terre to my itinerary. I had never even heard of it!! When I arrived…it was love at first sight! One year later I was living here….and fifteen years later, I'm still in awe and still in love :)
I want you to experience what I experienced.
Offering half-day, lunch and evening sunset tours, I strive to make my boat tours of the Cinque Terre the highlight of your Italian holiday! It’s a personal goal of mine…and one that I’ve achieved time and time again, according to the reviews!
Bel Mar Boat Tours offers small group and private boat tours in a traditional hand-crafted wooden "gozzo," the quintessential boat that lines the harbors of the Cinque Terre.
And while our boat may be traditional, it's anything but typical.
While gozzos, nowadays, are made of fiberglass, our boat is made entirely of wood - just like the original gozzos. It was built in the traditional Ligurian style by a 4th generation shipwright, very well known in all of Italy and abroad, not only for their impeccable craftmanship, but for combining tradition and innovation.
Ever conscious of the delicate ecosystem in the Cinque Terre and the effect diesel engines have on marine life in the protected Cinque Terre National Park, Bel Mar Boat Tours is extremely proud to be the only HYBRID boat in the Cinque Terre.
Besides the obvious benefits this has on the environment and marine life in the park, the added benefit to you is our boat is allowed into the harbors of each village when other boats are not.
Join us for a tour to explore the area we are so fortunate to call home and love sharing with others. Renowned for its incredible beauty and picturesque coastline,
the Cinque Terre (5 lands) is a must-see from the sea.
See you this summer!
