The Italian Riviera

The Italian Riviera is famous for its particularly mild climate and relaxed way of life  which, together with the charm of its old fishing ports and the beauty of its landscape, has made it a popular destination for travellers since Byron and Shelley’s time. It is.known for its beaches, colourfully painted towns, natural environment, food,  as well as festivals, golf courses, sailing, rock climbing and biking. The rugged coastline of  Cinque consists of the five beautiful hillside towns of Monterosso, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola and Riomaggiore with the opportunity to take hiking tours that offer truly amazing scenic views.
