Crystal-clear waters<\/strong>, wild coves<\/strong>, and breathtaking cliffs<\/strong>. Here we are on the Riviera delle Palme<\/em>, an enchanting and renowned area of Liguria.

Bergeggi, between beaches and protected islands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Suspended between mountains and the sea<\/strong>, this small town (with just over a thousand inhabitants) is ideal for taking a break from the hustle and bustle and experiencing moments of absoluterelaxation<\/strong>. Despite its small size, the village offers numerous points of interest<\/strong> and activities<\/strong>. However, its beaches<\/strong> are undoubtedly the main attraction for travelers. They offer a wide range of choices between pebbles<\/strong> and finesand<\/strong>, whether you love rugged coves or equipped bathing establishments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, there is Punta Prodani<\/strong>, a little secret corner accessible by boat<\/strong> or via a path that starts from the charming Lido delle Sirene. While the beaches impress us with the color of the sea and their beauty, it is the island<\/strong> that makes us fall in love with Bergeggi. About 250 meters from the coast, a cone of limestone <\/strong>covered with Mediterranean scrub emerges from the sea, reaching an altitude of 53 meters at its highest point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The island<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The island, also known as Sant’Eugenio Island, has been a Marine Protected Area <\/strong>since 2007. It preserve incredible biodiversity and extraordinary seabeds<\/strong>, caves<\/strong> and small coves, as well as legends and ancient history. Despite its small size, it boasts numerous historical<\/strong> and archaeological<\/strong> sites<\/strong>. A large circular tower from the Roman era, topped by a square-based tower from the medieval period, and a Paleochristian church with an attached monastery, likely added in the 11th century AD, all adding significant historical and cultural value to this impressive place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can easily organize trips for kayaking<\/strong>, diving<\/strong>, and snorkeling<\/strong> to admire the fantastic marine world that inhabits these waters, exclusively in designated areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally you can’t miss the Grotta<\/strong> Marina<\/strong> di Bergeggi, a karstic<\/strong> cave<\/strong> dating back approximately 200 million years. You will find it between Torre del Mare and the town center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The village of Bergeggi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The small town is located on the slopes<\/strong> of Mount Sant’Elena<\/strong>, in an elevated position compared to the sea. Narrow streets<\/strong> and pastel<\/strong>–colored<\/strong> houses with typical terrace roofs form small clusters scattered among olivegroves<\/strong> and vineyards, descending towards the sea <\/strong>through alleys. From the village and the surrounding hills<\/strong>, there are plenty of opportunities for walks<\/strong> and nature trekking<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The surroundings: Noli and Spotorno<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In the vicinity of Bergeggi, there are certainly enchanting places to visit. We have chosen Spotorno<\/strong> and Noli<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spotorno embodies the genuinecharm<\/strong> of Liguria. Behind a golden expanse of sand lies an ancientvillage<\/strong> waiting to be discovered. With its narrow<\/strong> and picturesque<\/strong> streets, colorful houses, and squares, it welcomes you with an authentic atmosphere. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Noli,

Noli<\/strong> is also an enchanting seaside village. Its historic center, surrounded by medievalwalls<\/strong>, holds a treasure trove of riches that tell of its glorious history as the Fifth Maritime Republic<\/strong> and its present as one of Italy’s most beautiful villages. We immerse ourselves in the narrow streets to explore the treasures of Noli. From the magnificent towers<\/strong> to the majestic castle<\/strong> overlooking the city, to the evocative cathedral<\/strong> and other precious palaces and monuments of great historical and artistic value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where to stay for a sustainable vacation in Bergeggi and the Ligurian Riviera<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"sustainable<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It is precisely on the hills between Noli and Spotorno that we have chosen our base. C\u00e0 de Badin<\/a><\/strong> is a small, typical<\/strong>, and charming family<\/strong>–runB&B<\/strong> immersed in nature<\/strong>. With organicbreakfasts<\/strong> and traditional buildings, you can live a slow<\/strong> life guided by eco<\/strong>–sustainability<\/strong> and respect for traditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
