The sea promenade

 

Far from traffic, the Anita Garibaldi Promenade runs along the cliff for about 2 Km, from the ancient harbour up to Capolungo village.
The southern exposure and the mountains at its back ensure the Promenade an exceptionally mild climate, with the panoramic views of Portofino headland and Camogli village on a side, and the Western coastline up to Mortola Cape on the other side.

 

The castle close to the harbour and the Saracen tower on a rock midway enrich this unique Promenade with historical notes and remind the visitors the need of defence and communications of the coast.

 

 

The Promenade has several accesses to the cliff and in summer the bathing stations set in the rocks offer the possibility of plunges into the sea or in the swimming-pool built among the rocks and the olive-trees.

 

In the evening it is possible to taste fish-dishes and the traditional focaccia in the small restaurants on the sea at the sound of Latin-American music or of the piano.
For half of its length the Promenade borders the parks and the rose-garden to which it gives access through several passages. This enable visitors to walk on the Promenade in winter sunny days, in summer evenings and in case of Northern wind, and to recover in the cool parks in summer hot days and when the Southern wind blows.
