One Day in Portofino
Sipping Champagne in Portofino. The countryside and drive to Portofino nestled on Italy’s northwest coast is just out of a romantic movie. It is no wonder that many famous people and Hollywood stars have visited this picturesque old fishing village. Once there you can walk up a narrow pathway to a cliff on the water passing villas and great views of the marina and town square.
Going up towards the Portofino promontory you will also see the church and castle of Saint George, and further along the way you can see Brown Castle and it’s beautiful garden. For more walking and great views the Portofino Natural Park provides a network of paths heading towards the mountain or halfway down the coast.
After a long walk and many photographs take a chair at one of the cafes on the marina and enjoy a meal or a bellini. The Bellini at Splendido was the best we ever had, and we are self proclaimed experts in the field of bellini’s. The fresh peach blend topped with Veuve Clicquot champagne was well worth the thirty dollars! The yachts floating in and the colorful homes on the waterfront make this an ideal place to relax and soak in the town of Portofino.
