The splendid Italian Riviera, which begins at the French border and extends through San Remo, Genova, Portofino and the Cinque Terre, offers all the absolute best of Italy - cuisine, architecture, history and beautiful landscapes. The Italian Riviera is less built-up than the French, and as such has a more classically Mediterranean flavour.
You'll fall in love with the brightly painted towns attached to unbroken green hillsides, the excellent northern Italian cuisine, the friendly people and the relaxed pace of life.
Many charterers choose a trip through both the French and Italian Riviera, for a comparison of these two yachting paradises.
