Things to do and see in Liguria
Liguria is a beautiful region full of things to see and food to try, so we highly recommend making a holiday out of the trip if you can!
Here are some of our recommendations of things to see and do:
Sestri Levante (town + Baia del Silenzio + beaches)
Chiavari (beaches)
Riva Trigoso (beach)
Cinque Terre (hikes, boat trips, beaches)
Genova (aquarium, old town, port, Boccadasse)
Camogli/San Fruttuoso (boat trip to beautiful secluded beach, hike)
Santa Margherita/Portofino (boat trip or hike to the famous Portofino, town + beach)
Bogliasco (nice town with beach)
Pontetto (Scoglio di Pontetto - rock beach with beautiful view)
Framura (boat trip, bike ride, secluded beach)
For more details, have a look at https://www.thelazyitalian.com/liguria/ or another travel guide to Genova and the Cinque Terre, or ask Lisa :)
Of course, it wouldn’t be Lisa’s recommendation if it didn’t involve food and Liguria has a LOT of good food. You can’t leave without trying:
Focaccia Genovese
Focaccia al Formaggio di Recco
Trofie al Pesto
Fritto Misto
Polpo e Patate
Pansotti alla Salsa di Noci
Farinata
