Liguria is my favorite region after Tuscany. It has one of Italy’s prettiest coastlines, rivaled only by the Amalfi Coast.
This guide takes you to four towns I return to again and again. They’re on a stunning part of the Ligurian Riviera that enchants me every time with its synthesis of culture and nature, brightly painted houses, and vivid blues and greens of the sea and wooded hillsides.
In this guide you’ll find:
- My favorite things to do in each town
- A round up of my favorite hikes with detailed descriptions
- Sites of historical interest
- Best places to swim in the sea
Chandi, it was wonderful having you join us and to share our enjoyment of the food, festivities, and city. Hope we see you back there next year!!
It was fun to be there with you and Mary. Yes, I hope for a repeat next year!
Your words and photos beckon me to the Ligurian coast!
Hi Noreen, it is quite a delicious area!
Wow!! stunning! thank you xx
Totally amazing photos! They make me want to fly over. Your written descriptions are also very alluring!
Ah, thanks, glad you liked the images and the write-up!
I’m not familiar at all with this part of Italy and now I want to go! Great information for travelers and it sounds incredibly romantic!
Ciao, I hope you can go! Let me know if you need any further info!
I love anything Italy bound, so this looks like the perfect cultural experience. With so many km of trails to explore, it seems like you would never get bored!
Ciao Kate, thanks for stopping by. Yes, the trails are beautiful and when the fireworks happen is a great time to go!
Chandi,
Just want you to know how much I loved “Return to Glow.” Excellently written and very inspirational. Keep on living the good life and writing about it. I will be returning to Italy mid September and staying in Lucca for a month. I’ve written down many of your favorite places in Tuscany for further exploration. Of course, Florence is my number 1 city in all of Italy.
Ciao!
Ciao Giovanna, How nice to hear! Thanks for letting me know 🙂
Give me a shout when you’re in Lucca/Firenze this September. (chandi at paradise of exiles dot com)
