Dream Destinations
An exclusive journey among the pearls of the Riviera
PORTOFINO
The beating heart of Portofino, the famous Piazzetta is the gathering place of high society and the “Dolce Vita,” beloved by Ligurians and international VIPs. After enjoying local specialties in its historic establishments, you can climb to the Church of San Giorgio, which houses the relics of Portofino’s patron saint, brought by sailors returning from the Crusades. The church, of Lombard origin, was rebuilt after World War II bombings and offers breathtaking views of the Gulf. From the Piazzetta, you can also admire Castello Brown, once a Genoese defensive fortress and now an exclusive event venue.
San Fruttuoso
Hidden among the inlets of the Portofino promontory, the bay of San Fruttuoso is an exclusive jewel, accessible only by sea or through scenic trails. Here stands the iconic Abbey of San Fruttuoso, a medieval masterpiece nestled between green and blue, once a refuge for monks and later property of the noble Doria family. Today, under the care of FAI, it can be visited among cloisters, stone vaults, and ancient frescoes. Offshore, in the crystal-clear waters, rises the famous Christ of the Abyss, a submerged statue that attracts diving enthusiasts. An exclusive experience combining history, nature, and timeless charm.
Camogli
Overlooking the Golfo Paradiso, Camogli is an elegant pearl of the Ligurian Riviera, famous for its picturesque waterfront, colorful facades, and authentic atmosphere. Stroll through its narrow streets to discover artisan shops and gourmet restaurants where you can enjoy the famous local fresh fish. The small harbor, the city’s beating heart, offers a charming glimpse of fishing boats and leads to the Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta, which overlooks the sea with its baroque
frescoes.
punta chiappa
A wonderful place, accessible both by sea and by land, that offers breathtaking views. In particular, the Church of San Nicolò is considered by scholars one of the oldest abbeys in Liguria. It is a small tongue of rock that extends from the Portofino promontory. This natural formation protects a small landing place, known as Porto Pidocchio. A dive into its waters is a must; its seabed, thanks to its position, hosts splendid
varieties of fish.
santa margherita ligure
Beloved by the international jet set, Santa Margherita boasts ancient origins, dating back to Roman times. Among the main points of interest are the Cervara Abbey complex, consisting of church, monastery, and a vast park with garden, declared a national monument in 1912; Villa Durazzo, a complex of two villas with a large seventeenth-century park and a charming Italian garden with tree-lined avenues; and the late medieval castle, built to defend against frequent Saracen pirate raids.
