From Portofino to Genoa to Cinque Terre, the Italian Riviera on the curve of Italy’s west coast offers sun baked beaches and charming villages set in a backdrop of the world’s most beautiful mountains, the Maritime Alps and the Apennines.
An Italian Riviera yacht charter takes you to an area of Italy known as the Riviera Ligure or Ligurian Riviera, this strip of paradise on the Ligurian Sea offers formidable alternatives to its French counterpart, the Cote d’Azur.
Divided into two main sections centered by the City of Genoa, a virtual Mecca of art and culture, the Riviera di Ponente (The Coast of the Setting Sun)) and the Riviera di Levante (The Coast of the Rising Sun) attract visitors from around the globe.
The Riviera di Ponente is divided into two parts, the Riviera delle Palme (Riviera of Palms), centered on Savona, and the Riviera dei Fiori (Riviera of Flowers), centered on Sanremo and known for its flower growing industry.
For glitz and glamour, the Riviera delle Palme is frequented by celebrities, entertainment icons, and the rich and famous from all corners of the earth. The nightlife, shopping, beaches, and scenery are legendary.
For the same remarkable landscapes and pristine beaches less traveled, the Riviera dei Fiori would be the better choice. Local cuisine and culture in a laid back atmosphere is the order of the day in this area that is rich in art and history.
Portofino, a charming fishing village is also a vacation resort famous for its picturesque harbor that is frequented by celebrity and artistic visitors.
The town of Bordighera is nestled in the southernmost commune of the region where the Maritime Alps plunge into the sea. Here, visitors can enjoy the benefits of the Foehn effect that creates a special microclimate with warm winters.
The five villages of the Cinque Terre are part of the Cinque Terre National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that are well worth visiting
A renowned center of historical and cultural significance, superb cuisine, and breathtaking panoramas punctuated by unparalleled mountain vistas. Visitors of all ages and tastes flock to the Italian Riviera to experience maximum indulgence in la dolce vita.
