Exploring the magic of Italy with tours to Cinque Terre
There is no single town named ‘Cinque Terre.’This coastal area in northwest Italy comprises of five enchanting villages: Corniglia, Manarola, Monterroso al Mare, Riomaggiore, and Vernazza. Here’s what you need to know about them:
Riomaggiore
This village lies in the easternmost area of Cinque Terre. It is the largest of the five and is known for its picture-perfect sunsets and pastel-colored buildings. Riomaggiore is also home to Fossola Beach, a small and secluded stretch of land filled with pebbled sand and blue waters.
Manarola
You’ll find this village beside Riomaggiore, and it’s the perfect destination if you’re craving a romantic night out. Manarola; is best known for its Sciacchetrà wine, a sweet and savory drink with hints of dried fruit and salt. Sciacchetrà pairs wonderfully with dry pastries and cheese.
Corniglia
Seeking somesolitude, peace, and quiet? Cinque Terre’s middle village Corniglia is a calm area sitting atop a rocky cliff. It may not have direct access to the sea, but you won’t run out of other things to do in the town. Corniglia is full of colorful houses, narrow alleys, and a picturesque terrace where you can see all five villages from afar.
Vernazza
