The splendid bay of Portofino, surrounded by the greenery of the promontory, is a typical ligurian fishing village, with its high, colorful houses huddled in a semicircle around the "piazzetta".
Now one of the world's most famous and exclusive resorts, this town is a favorite of international celebrities, yet still retains an atmosphere of bygone days rich with traditions of the sea and local craftsmen.
A visit to Brown Castle and a walk up to St. George's church and to the lighthouse should not be missed. Trails leading up the mountain and down to San Fruttuoso offer an unforgettable opportunity to appreciate the natural beauty of this idyllic spot.
