The Hyena’s Revenge slips away from Marina di Riomaggiore as the sun tilts toward the Ligurian horizon; spray cools your face and the pastel villages lean toward the sea like spectators. Captain Jenny steers a distinctive pink gozzo close to the cliff faces so you can read the layers of rock and see terraces that have been pruned into vineyards for centuries.

The Hyena’s Revenge slips away from Marina di Riomaggiore as the sun tilts toward the Ligurian horizon; spray cools your face and the pastel villages lean toward the sea like spectators. Captain Jenny steers a distinctive pink gozzo close to the cliff faces so you can read the layers of rock and see terraces that have been pruned into vineyards for centuries.
From the water the Cinque Terre reads as history in color: medieval towers, sea-level churches and the stacked houses of Manarola and Riomaggiore built by fishermen who carved terraces into limestone and clay. Geology here is abrupt — cliffs drop into clear water, coves hide pebbled beaches, and currents tease snorkelers toward underwater rock gardens.
Culture arrives in small details onboard: a local aperitif, fresh oysters, and stories about the Madonna di Montenero and winter nativity lights in Manarola. The sea has its own personality too — it can be glassy and welcoming or push playfully against the hull as you move between villages.
Practically: this three-hour shared outing blends coastline viewing, at least one swim/snorkel stop (often near Guvano Bay), and a sunset toast with local wine. Expect basic boarding steps, brief water entry for snorkeling, and room for a small group. Bring a towel, reef-safe sunscreen, a light wind layer, and readiness to follow the captain’s safety briefing. Timing your booking for golden hour improves photos and reduces midday heat. For swimmers and non-swimmers alike, the sea offers an immediate, accessible way to meet the Cinque Terre from its most honest angle — from the water.
