Private Sunset Aperitif on a Boat in the Gulf of Poets

About this tour

Sail the Gulf of Poets aboard a traditional wooden gozzo as the sun dips toward the horizon. This 2.5-hour private charter accommodates up to five people, departing at 6.30pm from a meeting point you choose. Your Lucerne-based skipper steers to a secluded anchorage where you'll sample regional wines and local charcuterie while the light turns gold across the water. It's an intimate evening afloat with minimal fuss and maximum flexibility—bring your own requests and they'll do their best to oblige.

Highlights

• Flexible departure point arranged directly with skipper
• Regional wines and cured meats from local producers
• Sunset views from the water, away from crowds

What to expect

You'll meet your skipper at a location you've agreed beforehand—this might be a marina, beach, or waterfront village. Once aboard the gozzo, you'll motor out into the Gulf as the afternoon light begins to soften. The skipper knows the coastline well and can take you to a favourite cove or quieter anchorage depending on conditions and what appeals to you. Once anchored, the aperitivo begins: local wines, cheeses, cured meats, and a chance to simply sit on deck as the sun descends. There's no rigid itinerary—conversation, swimming, or silence are all equally welcome. The boat returns to your chosen disembarkation point as dusk settles.
