Sestri Levante has a unique territorial conformation, basically made up of a strip of houses standing straight at the waters’ edge between the coast and the little island that preserves the hamlet from the onslaught of the sea wind.

Portofino is one of the most renowned and celebrated towns of the Ligurian coast, an exclusive jewel that hosts many important touristic and cultural events with the participation of the most famous cultural personalities and showbiz celebrities.

Santa Margherita is situated halfway between Rapallo and Portofino and is one of the most beautiful localities of the Ligurian region, in consideration of its surroundings and consequent liveability. The town stretches for the most part along the sea and offers a unique panorama made up of a succession of colorful inlets and ancient terraced houses that descend towards the sea. No wonder Santa Margherita is called the Pearl of the Tigullio bay: in fact, besides being a renowned maritime town with numerous bathing establishments and de-luxe hotels, it is also an important disembarkation area for passenger ships from all over the world.

The first thing that comes to mind when mentioning Rapallo is a feast, and not only for the spectacular firework show that takes place every year in July, where the town is lit up by a thousand colourful flashes. Rapallo is a bustling and lively town, with a unique atmosphere and stands out for its remarkable and distinctive character. Perhaps this is the reason why many come to visit this town even during the winter. Rapallo combines history and architectural riches with its picturesque landscape.

The magnificent beaches, the amazing cliffs that plunge into sea and the crystal clear waters make Cinque Terre one of the most welcoming areas of the east Ligurian coast. It is definitely one of the most enchanting areas of Liguria, with its fascinating little beaches inserted among the rocks and the stunning inlets that descend into cobalt blue sea floors.
