Camogli, Italy
Nestled along the Ligurian coast, Camogli is a charming fishing village that captures the essence of authentic Italian seaside life. Located just a short distance from the bustling city of Genoa, this picturesque town is known for its colorful waterfront houses, historic harbor, and laid-back atmosphere. Unlike the more tourist-heavy destinations of the Cinque Terre or Portofino, Camogli offers a quieter, more intimate experience with the same stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea.
For nature lovers, the nearby Monte di Portofino offers hiking trails with breathtaking coastal views and access to secluded beaches. One of Camogli’s most celebrated events is the Sagra del Pesce, or Fish Festival, held every May. The highlight is the frying of fish in a giant pan in the main square, drawing visitors from across Italy.
