5 PLACES TO VISIT IN CINQUE TERRE

Brush Stroke

On our penultimate day aboard Princess Cruises we docked in Genoa, and took an excursion to the world-famous (and Instagram famous) Cinque Terre. 

Manarola

Manarola may be the oldest of the towns in the Cinque Terre, with the cornerstone of the church, San Lorenzo, dating from 1338.

Vernazza

Vernazza is the prettiest of the five villages snuggles in a cleft between rocky cliffs, with colorful houses that seem to be stacked atop each other along its steep, narrow main street.

Monterosso has the only long and sandy beach in the area where you can rent chairs and umbrellas or a kayak to explore the many coves around the coast.

Monterosso al Mare

Corniglia

Corniglia, the only one of the Cinque Terre without a harbor, and stands more than 182 meters above the sea.

Riomaggiore

The town is caught in the narrow cleft between two steep headlands and provides an amazing array of photos for amatuer photographers and Instagrammers alike.
