Portofino is the jewel of Liguria and worth visiting it for a lunch or a stroll. The walk to the lighthouse offers incredible views and a casual bar for light aperitivo.
Getting there:
Walk from Santa Margherita (45 minutes)
Take a taxi or the ferry boat
While Liguria is known worldwide for its pesto, the freshly baked foccaccia is not to be missed!
The only way to establish yourself as a local is to have a a very strong opinion on the foccaccia by tasting as many varieties as you can. Bon appetito!
Beach club inside of the famous Covo nightclub. We recommend booking sunbeds in advance.
A beautiful park with views of Santa Margherita.
For those who are interested in a day trip, hopping on the train to see the famous Cinque Terre is always an option.
San Fruttuoso is a Benedictine monastery from the year 1000, a true oasis in an already unique setting between the land and forests of the Portofino mountain and the blue sea of eastern Liguria.
You can take the ferry there and back from Santa Margherita or Portofino.
