CINQUE TERRE Italy

Monterosso al Mare, Italy
Cinque Terre are a collection of five villages along the Italian Riveria. The seaside towns are marked by cliffs, beautiful waters, colourful buildings, and good food.

We began our tour by train from Spezia.

Our first stop was Vernazza.

The beach and seascape is at the end of the short hilly street lined with various shops and eateries.



The wave action was mesmerising until a pair of swimmers seemed to appear out of nowhere.



The caves along the shore add to the magical feel of the place.



I couldn't resist a video of the waves against the rocks.



Close to midday, we re-boarded the train for Monterosso

Monterosso seems to have a wider vista as you look over the cliffs.

And another video of waves on the rocks.



We both agreed the lunch was one of the best meals we had in Italy.








Just sitting by the seaside was a perfect way to end the afternoon.
