Liguria

A land of inspiration for numerous poets and writers, a protagonist of enchanted beauty, Sestri Levante is defined as the ‘City of the Two Seas‘ due to its particular geographical position. The small municipality, in fact, is joined to the mainland by an isthmus, a thin strip of land that divides the Baia delle Favole (Fairy Tale Bay) from the smaller and even more evocative Baia del Silenzio (Silent Bay).

Characterised by its picturesque pastel-coloured buildings, Sestri Levante has been included in the Network of Sustainable Municipalities, a demonstration of its ongoing awareness of sustainable development.

Located between the crystal-clear sea and green hills, Lavagna offers a perfect blend of nature and history, making it an ideal destination for those seeking tranquillity and beauty.

Lavagna’s sandy beaches, awarded the Blue Flag, are ideal for relaxing in the sun and taking long walks along the shoreline. The marina, one of the largest in Liguria, is a perfect starting point for exploring the Tigullio Gulf by boat and admiring the coast from a unique perspective.

The historical centre of Lavagna, with its narrow streets and pastel-coloured buildings, invites you to get lost among craft shops and typical restaurants where you can taste local specialities such as pesto alla Genovese and fresh seafood. Visit the Basilica of Santo Stefano, a masterpiece of Ligurian architecture, and the historic Torre del Borgo, which offers a breathtaking panoramic view of the city and the sea.

Lavagna is a destination that knows how to win the heart of every visitor, offering an authentic and unforgettable experience in one of Italy’s most fascinating regions.
