Hugging the perimeter of Italy’s northwest coastline (above the boot shaft) visitors will find the Italian Riviera. The entire coast plays second-fiddle to Tuscany, Venice, and Rome, but mistakenly so. It’s filled with sandy beaches, lively outdoor markets, tasty and affordable alfresco restaurants, picturesque harbor towns, long forgotten Roman roads-turned hiking paths…all permeated by a deliciously languid, Mediterranean vibe.
For the quaint seaside towns, delicious food, and an overall Mediterranean feel.
