Cinque Terre

Historically, the five villages of Cinque Terre-Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso-could only be reached by sea. Today, they are one of Italy’s best-known and most visited locations. Tourists fill the narrow streets in summer, drawn to the azure water and whimsical nature of the brightly colored houses perched along rocky cliffs.
Using public transport to reach the sea, Cinque Terre was the perfect place for a self-support sea kayaking trip that escaped the crowds but still let Jens Klatt, Barbara Leider and Ingrid Schlott sample the beauty-and gelato-of the Ligurian Coast.

Nice that they had a drone documenting some of this. My wife and I stayed in Monterosso a few years back and took the local shuttle boat to Vernazza then hiked the trail back. Would love to kayak there, but I would not want to have to lug all that gear around!

Nice! Very helpful as we search for lodge-based kayaking in Italy.

Really nice twilight time-laps of the village in sunset - wow. Too bad the Argo still only comes with Alloy and no wood version frame

I'm interested to know what folders you were using?

Hello! What exactly do you mean with 'folders'? If you mean the kayaks: we used the Nortik Navigator and Argo... hope that helps.. cheers, Jens
