Half-Day Boat Tour in Milano Marittima, Riviera Romagnola
Overview
3 hours 30 minutes
Mobile ticket
Relax on a half-day boat excursion from Milano Marittima along Italy’s Adriatic coast.
Cruise past industrial platforms and the beaches of Romagna and Marche, spending part of the journey tasting local specialties — and, with a bit of luck, you might even spot dolphins playing in the water.
Your tour begins aboard the Motonave Ghibli, which sets sail toward the Adriatic Sea. You’ll enjoy views of other boats gliding by near Cesenatico.

5.00The boat tour was great and absolutely recommendable. The price-performance ratio is excellent. For 30 euros per person, you get not only the 3.5-hour trip but also a drink and food (fries with anchovies), along with water and wine with the meal. There was music playing on the ship. In the end, even the people danced. But of course, one did not have to. However, the atmosphere was really great. At first, we were concerned that with 100 people on the ship it would be quite cramped, but on the three decks, people spread out well, and it worked wonderfully. All age groups were represented, from young to old. The staff is very friendly. The restrooms on the boat were also fine and clean. Toilet paper, soap, and paper towels were available. The tour itself was also interesting. You first travel along the coast and then to the drilling platforms and the shellfish farm. Explanations are available in Italian, German, English, and French. It was also great that the ship was accompanied by seagulls. That was already spectacular. And then we also saw dolphins. Although we mostly only saw the dorsal fin and not the whole dolphin, it was still nice. The entire trip was simply amazing.
Brilliant half day boat trip in Milano Marittima, highly recommend

5.00We were greeted very nicely by the crew. The highlight for us was the trip to a natural gas platform 11 SM off the coast of Ravenna, plus perfect weather. The explanations to the plant were trilingual.
Milano Marittima a pearl

5.00A pearl in the Adriatic. Given that, the Romagna people will excuse me, that stimulates and I admire for how they welcome and take care of their territory, but not loving the Adriatic Sea very much, I must say that Milano Marittima impressed me pleasantly. Careful, clean organized The immense beach, with well-kept beaches and clean sand The sea in the morning excellent The impressively large pine forest has a butterfly reserve inside. Ideal for those who love jogging or reading a book in the different dining areas Bella. I'll be back.
Lovely getaway
