/ MYTH OF THE MERMAID
PRIVATE CRUISE AND FABULOUS SHOW AT THE CINQUE TERRE
Since the past, the cliffs of Liguria have been the scene of ancient legends dating back to an early era of humanity, when the forces of nature were still perceived as spirits with a will of their own. In Porto Venere, the tradition of the goddess born from the sea foam, Aphrodite, is transformed over time into the tradition of the Madonna Bianca. While along the Cinque Terre we know the legend of the sirens, as daughters of the sea god Poseidon, as well as the tritons, his sons. And it is also in Liguria, in the Bay of Silence in Sestri Levante that Hans Christian Andersen learned of a local legend, of the forbidden love of the mermaid Segesta and the triton Tigullio, and drew inspiration to write the Little Mermaid, his most famous book.
Be bewitched by the enchantment of the sea and music
A fairytale experience, in a place whose majestic beauty bewitches travellers, just like the song of the Sirens. The whole day will be spent on a private yacht, in the company of world-class artists who will enrich the crossing with musical performances. A leading expert on art, symbolism and legends will accompany you at all stages, revealing what would otherwise be invisible to your eyes. Upon request, a mermaid-themed shoot can be provided, where you become the protagonist yourself.
