Sup Experience: Portofino Coast Discovery Tour

Discover the magic of Portofino's coastline from a completely new perspective — standing on a Stand Up Paddle board in one of the most enchanting bays in Liguria.

Nestled within the Portofino Marine Protected Area, the bay of Paraggi offers crystal-clear emerald waters, entirely closed to boat traffic, making it the perfect spot for a safe and peaceful paddling adventure.

Accompanied by certified instructors, you’ll start with a lesson covering the basic SUP techniques — balance, posture, and how to use the paddle efficiently and safely. Once you feel comfortable on the board, you’ll head out to explore the stunning Marine Protected Area of Portofino.

The transition from learning to exploring is smooth: after the intro session, the real adventure begins — paddling from Paraggi toward the iconic village of Portofino. Along the way, you’ll enjoy breathtaking views of the colorful harbor, the Paraggi castle, San Giorgio church, and Castello Brown — all from the unique vantage point of the sea.

Thanks to the elevated position on the SUP board, you’ll enjoy a spectacular view both above and below the surface, with incredible visibility of the seabed and marine life below you.
