Five small enchanting fishermen villages built between sea, cliffs and mountains. Riomaggiore, Manarola, Corniglia, Vernazza and Monterosso al Mare.
Located along the coastline that leads to Genoa, these five historic little towns (World Heritage List - UNESCO since 1997) distinguish themselves for their unique landscape made of steep hiking paths, vineyards and dry-stone walls perched right above the sea.
The Gulf of La Spezia, also known as Gulf of Poets, is famous worldwide.
This nickname was given in relation to the fact that over the centuries many literates and artists have visited or had their residence here: writer D.H. Lawrence, poet Lord Byron, and writer P.B. Shelley with his wife Mary, author of the famous Frankestein novel.
Fortifications, castles, historic churches, the Palmaria, Tino and Tinetto islands, make Portovenere one of the most fascinating villages in our area.
The most representative monuments are the church of San Pietro, perched on a cliff overlooking the horizon and the nineteenth century Fort Umberto I on Palmaria's Island which hosts thematic exhibitions, shows and cultural events.
Lerici, San Terenzo and Tellaro are other three pearls in the far east of the Gulf of Poets.
The villages of Lerici and San Terenzo are situated in a small natural bay, protected by two medieval castles. Take a stroll through colourful houses, cliffs and large beaches.
San Terenzo is home to Mary Shelley, a famous writer.
In the easternmost part of the coast, perched on a small cliff, stands Tellaro, a small fishermen village considered to be one of the most beautiful in Italy.
