The
Ligurian coastline is almost 350 km long and stretches from the French border and down to
Tuscany. Behind the coast raises the Apennines and forms shelter for the cold northern winds. This contributes to a mild climate year round and ideal bathing opportunities on the beautiful beaches.
On this coast you'll find white sandy beaches, rock beaches and rocks. Most of the sandy beaches are in the western part and it is probably why the beaches here are more populated and more turistminded than in the east. In the eastern part you will instead find the beautiful rocky areas in or around "Le
Cinque Terre". Here the beaches are incredibly beautiful and natural, due to its undisturbed.
Some of the best beaches are to be found in
Diano Marina,
Levanto and
Alassio. If you prefer swimming from rocks and smaller beaches Le
Cinque Terre makes a good spot for a beach holiday in
Liguria.
