The Italian Riviera

Region hero image

The Italian Riviera (Liguria) stretches along a narrow coastal strip between the Alps and the Ligurian Sea. It is famous for its dramatic cliffside villages, the Cinque Terre, fresh pesto and seafood, and a mild microclimate. Genoa is a gritty, underappreciated port city with a rich maritime history; Sanremo is an elegant belle-époque resort town.
