Sestri Levante
Sestri Levante holidays offer a delightful mix of seaside charm and easy access to Liguria’s biggest highlights. Once a quiet fishing village, it now enchants visitors with two stunning bays — the Bay of Silence and the Bay of Fables, named in honour of Hans Christian Andersen.
The historic centre sits on a narrow peninsula, with colourful buildings, relaxed cafés and a lively promenade. It’s the perfect place to unwind, explore or hop on a train to nearby Portofino or the Cinque Terre.
Mild weather, scenic landscapes and a friendly local feel make Sestri Levante holidays a relaxing alternative to the Riviera’s glitz — perfect for couples, families or solo travellers seeking coastal beauty with charm.
