Portofino Italy. Come see our Portofino Italy hidden gems found near Genoa on the Portofino Peninsula, a national park near Cinque Terre. This Portofino travel vlog shows you spectacular views, historic marvels, and local Liguria food in hidden restaurants unknown to most visitors.
In this Portofino Italy travel guide, we’ll take you beyond the bling to four insider experiences in Portofino, the Italian Riviera’s most beloved and chic destination. In this Portofino vlog near Genoa Italy you’ll see its Italian Riviera charm doesn’t start and end with the classy little fishing village turned marina, there’s so many more Portofino things to do. The further you venture in Italy’s riviera travel, the less crowded it gets. It’s easy to call Portofino Positano, but Positano is Positano’s much southern neighbor on the Amalfi coast.
Portofino is located on the Liguria coast in the section of the Italian riviera between Genoa and Cinque Terre. We’ll show you lesser-known Portofino things to do at this lovely destination a few kilometers from Santa Margherita Ligure, which we covered in a recent travel vlog. Santa and Portofino pair together well as one of the best places to go in Liguria and maybe all of Italy. If you’re in Cinque Terre, this area is not far and a great alternative to Cinque Terre. So you’re in for a great Portofino holiday.
Portofino is the Liguria riviera’s picture-perfect fishing village turned luxury hot-spot of designer shops, yachts, and Michelin restaurants. Even thought this tiny, yet infamous place that can get crowded our local tips take you to unique experiences, less-traveled, beyond the hype. All it takes is to venture into the Portofino park, one of Liguria’s best-kept secrets, full of hidden gems.
CERVARA ABBEY. Cervara Abbey is near Genoa, between Portofino and Santa Margherita Ligure. You must make a reservation for a mandatory tour by the Abbey guides. https://www.cervara.it The garden is the best part of the visit — it’s the only Italian Renaissance style garden in Liguria. From the garden see the gulf of Portofino and down the coast to the cliffs at the beginning of Cinque Terre. And looking the other way, Portofino.
VISTA POINTS. Tons of beautiful trails criss-cross the leafy Portofino National park leading to gobsmacking vistas. Pick up a trail map at the tourist office in Santa, Rapallo, Camogli or Portofino.
BASE ZERO. The Base Zero loop goes up into the hills directly from Portofino and across the sheer cliff with even better sea vistas than what we experienced walking between villages in the Cinque Terre trail. You’ll share your journey with with far less people.
PARADISE POINT. This best view facing up the coast to Camogli, Genoa. San Rocco below to Camogli and Genoa.
SEMAFARO NUOVO. Semafaro Nuovo is another picture perfect view and the best instagrammable spot. If you look right below the bench lookout you’ll see the naval batteries built in 1941 to fortify Genoa. As you finish the loop you’ll get more sea vistas and a final viewpoint — this one down to the monastery of San Fruttuoso.
SAN FRUTUOSSO. Taking the ferry to San Fruttuoso is one of our favorite experiences in this area. We’ve covered this beautiful location in our Camogli vlog and Bogliasco vlog because we can’t get enough of it! Ferries leave from Santa Margherita Ligure, Porto fino and Camogli before arriving in a half hour to this spectacular bay.
HISTORIC MILL for LUNCH. Historic olive mill named Mulino Gassetta. Portofino peninsula used to produce olive oil for the surrounding communities. The osteria is casual with homestyle cooking.
FERRY RIDE TO PORTOFINO. Return to Portofino by walking back to Santa Margherita Ligure and taking the ferry fifteen minutes along the coast.
