One of our favorite things we did in Italy - Highly recommend! This was one of our favorite things we did while in Italy. We were able to walk to the meeting point (it was about 20 min walk away from where our cruise ship dropped us off but there was a pedestrian path the whole way and it was a lovely walk with beautiful views.) Our tour guide, Manuel, was amazing! He was patient and helpful. We had six people total (2 adults, 2 young adults, and 2 teens) and he helped us all be able to manage the paddle boards. The whole tour was about two hours and we got to paddle along the shore and see Portofino from the view of the water.

Not to be missed - The company is excellent. Unfortunately our trip was postponed due to a storm but they went out of their way to reschedule the following day. Manuel was a great instructor and then Sarah and another instructor took us on an unforgettable tour. They were so patient and helpful and made us feel confident. The company also were looking after many people on the beach who weren’t customers. Outstanding!

Fabulous afternoon - We are on a cruise that has stopped at Portofino and decided to try the SUP experience with Outdoor Portofino this afternoon. We are a family with two kids ages 12 and 16. We’ve had such a fabulous time. Dario was our guide and he briefed us really well on technique before taking us out for a practice / warm up prior to the experience around the coast. Dario was professional and friendly briefing our group of 7 in both English and Italian. He was also brilliant with the kids. The venue itself is quite small with not a lot of amenities - we walked from Portofino harbour and it was about 20 mins along the main road. We are all exhausted and have fallen in quite a few times but had such a lot of fun and would thoroughly recommend.

First SUP experience - My boyfriend and mine first SUP experience. Chill staff, our guide Dario was very nice, explained the technique well and showed us the bay area, as well as teaching us a bit about Portofino's fauna and flora. We had a lovely time and feel confident in wanting to try paddleboarding on our own next time! Definitely recommend it.
