La Spezia Boat Tour with local seafood tasting
Overview
Jump aboard Matilde's boat with the king of mussels and oysters from the Gulf of Poets!
The muscles are the mussels of this incredible stretch of the Ligurian coast. While you take a beautiful tour of the most stunning sea at the gates of the Cinque Terre, you can taste the freshest seafood grown by us and offer it with cold wine and other local products.
We will also take you to visit our mussels farms, to fully understand this centenary culture typical of the La Spezia sea.
Ours is not just a boat tour; discovering Portovenere and its islands, Lerici, and the entire coast will give you a genuine experience of beauty and authentic flavors.
We can meet in La Spezia, in the very central Porto Mirabello, or in other seaside resorts of the Gulf, such as Cadimare and Portovenere, and you can contact us if you want other pick-up points.
Matilde is a cheerful boat equipped with all comforts, where you can lie in the sun and dive whenever you want!

We had the most amazing time on this tour. It felt very authentic to the La Spezia region, and we learnt a lot about the area and enjoyed some wonderful fresh seafood, farmed by our hosts. We felt so relaxed and we’re just able to enjoy the day. I would 10/10 recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area, especially those on limited time. Although I would have loved to spend a longer time out on the water with the team, we just enjoyed the 3 hours so much we wouldn’t hesitate to go again. High recommend.
