The Ligurian village of Portofino is located just south of Genoa. The picturesque place with its colorful flowers and its steep slopes is known just for the harbor, a natural harbor in the small bay surrounded by colorful houses. The sight of the ascending olive groves above the houses and the harbor is very charming.

Through the town you can quickly reach the groves of cypresses or pine trees. It is the very landscape makes the town a popular holiday destination. But also two buildings are not to be neglected: the church of San Giorgio near the harbor and the fortress by the same name. The latter is perched on top of the city, is surrounded by a magnificent park and houses a museum about the city's history. In addition, there are magnificent views of the village and the surrounding area, which spread almost as on a postcard. If you have a longer stay in mind and need more peace you will be delighted on a boat ride to San Fruttuoso, which is located in a bay and was first established as a monastery complex, but today is a fishing village with a charming environment, which offers a beautiful landscape and some picturesque monasteries.
