eastern riviera: NERVI- THE BEAUTIFUL GULF OF GENOA
  • Tip Rating:
  • Integrated in Genoa and close to the other resorts of the Eastern Riviera, Nervi is a pleasant resort of the Genoese Eastern Coast, well known for the beauties of the nature as well as for its mild climate. It is set between the mountains and the sea and offers both sour and particularly sweet views.
    In a tour which must be covered almost completely on foot, far from cars, it is possible to start from the ancient harbour (the "porticciolo") and, through the Anita Garibaldi Promenade, reach the parks and the rose-garden. This gives access to the ancient villas which house the Modern Art Gallery and the collections of the Luxoro and Frugone families.

    eastern riviera: NERVI
  • Tip Rating:
  • Far from traffic, the Anita Garibaldi Promenade runs along the cliff for about 2 Km, from the ancient harbour up to Capolungo village.
    The southern exposure and the mountains at its back ensure the Promenade an exceptionally mild climate, with the panoramic views of Portofino headland and Camogli village on a side, and the Western coastline up to Mortola Cape on the other side.
    The Promenade has several accesses to the cliff and in summer the bathing stations set in the rocks offer the possibility of plunges into the sea or in the swimming-pool built among the rocks and the olive-trees.

    eastern riviera: NERVI: OLD HARBOUR
  • Tip Rating:
  • The ancient harbour (Porticciolo) is the historical hearth of Nervi: the colourful houses, the small beach and the boats lie between two rocks, with the castle on a side and the college on the other.

    eastern riviera: NERVI: VILLAS AND PARKS
  • Tip Rating:
  • Just behind the cliff and the promenade there are parks between the hills and the sea. They offer pleasant walks among the palms, the cluster pines, the exotic trees imported by the noble families in the past centuries and the rose-garden. In summer the villas and the parks, with their stupendous floral frame, are the suggestive scenary for the International Ballet Festival, the open-air cinema and the jazz concerts.

     This ship is nice but not old. It's the one which was used by Roman Polanki for his movie "Pirates" (1986)

     Beautiful historical town! It was enjoyable to read and see the amazing pictures.
