Corniglia is perched above a promontory and traditionally we know it as the village that has no access to the sea.
Well, what about this secluded beach? La Marina is really a paradise for privileged guests!
Follow me and get’s closer to it. We’ll follow the Marina path and go down till paradise appears in front of our eyes
Crystal clear waters
Then back to Corniglia Belvedere and we are overwhelmed by beauty
What a day!
The best for a boat tour
All is so silent around us that we can hear the words of the captain who’s talking on the phone while boating towards Manarola.
And going around the village that’s what we encounter.
Every step we take is a pleasant surprise for our eyes and our heart.

Saint Peter’s Church, so simple, so elegant, so beautiful.
It dates back to 1334, built on a previous religious site of XI century. Artists coming from Como Lake area built this piece of art. Basically made in Ligurian Gothic style as per desire of the Genoese Fieschi Family with Baroque addictions.
Not to be missed the Saint Patron celebrations on June 29th
The typical Ligurian Risseu, the cobble stone flooring so common in the region squares and streets.
