Cruise to Santa Margherita to watch traditional handicrafts being made and visit a farm in Portofino to sample delicacies made with ingredients grown on the premises. The ferry will take you to the former fishing village of Santa Margherita, where you will visit a workshop to watch local women embroidering and explain the history of the traditional process. The technique dates to the 16th century, when bobbin lace was included in the dowries of affluent women. Following the demonstration, you may explore Santa Margherita on your own. As an alternative, you might simply sit on a waterfront bench and gaze at the sea and the pastel-colored homes clinging to the hillside. Back in Portofino, you will walk to Niasca, a nearby farm with olive groves and lemon orchards. Here, you will have the opportunity to sample some of products made on site, such as crispy focaccia bread, olive oil and lemonade.
