5Camogli

Camogli is a hidden gem on the Italian Riviera, often overshadowed by its more famous neighbors. This small fishing village, located just a few miles from Portofino, is known for its colorful houses that line the waterfront, and its picturesque harbor where local fishing boats dock.

Camogli has a rich maritime history, and visitors can explore its charming old town with narrow streets, quaint shops, and seafood restaurants serving fresh catches of the day. For those interested in history, the Basilica di Santa Maria Assunta is a must-see, with its stunning frescoes and impressive architecture. Camogli is also the gateway to the Parco Naturale Regionale di Portofino, where hiking trails offer breathtaking views of the coast.
