Marina di Portofino

Marina di Portofino

A picturesque and elite harbor tucked into a tiny Ligurian bay, Marina di Portofino is the jewel of the Italian Riviera.

Marina di Portofino is one of the most exclusive and charming ports in the Mediterranean, nestled in a natural bay beneath colorful hillside buildings. With only about 14 berths, it caters primarily to superyachts and offers unmatched privacy and luxury. Services include water, electricity, waste management, and concierge. Due to its small size, anchoring offshore and using tender service is common. The town offers high-end boutiques, seafood restaurants, and romantic walks to the lighthouse or nearby coves.
