Golfo Paradiso.
The small hamlets that overlook the Golfo Paradiso (Paradise Gulf), with a sea front known worldwide for its extraordinary beauty, are intense and manifold splashes of color clinging to the cliffs. The fishermen's houses, with their narrow, tall, and highly colorful facades, make this stretch of coast unique, alternating with small beaches and rocks covered with Mediterranean vegetation.

In the communities along the shoreline, the great seafaring tradition is preserved, concentrating especially in Camogli: its characteristic small harbors display numerous gozzi (typical Ligurian fishing boats), with nets stretched out in the sun; the Seafaring Museum is in the center. Here, logbooks, captain's journals, drawings of sailing ships, sextants, and compasses tell of a golden age of navigation in which the city was king. There are also excellent flavors from the sea that can be sampled at the restaurant tables and in lanes of the village, fried in enormous pans during the great fish festival in the month of May.
