Top 35 things to do and attractions in Sestri Levante

Very nice beach with some sandy and some stony areas. Public toilets, changing rooms and showers are free, which is great. The water is warm and almost entirely clear.

Pretty bay, but there are some digging works near the Albergo Nettune. Perhaps they are widening the beach with additional sand? A great place to play with dogs, and away from the heavy equipment there is plenty of space to bathe and chill. Sestri is a charming resort with lots of amenities and shops.

Nice view over the golf. The beach and sea are very clean. You can also find free basic services(showers, toilets, changing rooms).

Sestri Levante is a wonderful place; everything moves in slow motion. Amazing sunsets from the beach. A dream.

Just magical

it is a private beach.

Nice beach with dark sands and some pebbles, a beautiful view to the sea, resort and hills, great for swimming with paid umbrella and chair as well as free beach areas and lots of nearby offerings of the resort for food and drink and some boat trips

Lovely beach front, quiet but well kept. Restaurants on the main street and pricey, but head behind the first row or two of properties and the prices are much more affordable

Awesome sandy beach! Very peaceful and not crowded.

Pretty beach in a typical Italian setting. A lovely place to swim. Worth a visit! Handy to know-The beach itself has more rocks on the left hand side, so we stuck to the middle or the right hand side. Entrance to beach in the summer is restricted in the free areas (starting from June 2023). Once it is full you cannot enter. The beach in the other side of the isthmus,100m across, is big and free but slightly less attractive.

Beautiful beach!

Beautiful beach in Sestri Levante ( GE) Wonderful and romantic location For family and children's Recommend by Sarina House Ocean View Santa Giulia Hill Lavagna Liguria Italy

Beautiful beach and location, such a shame about the daily dump of sewage or similar which stagnates all day. :-(

Found this bay on the last morning of our stay in Sestri and had to stop and eat at a little osteria on the beach. It was so lovely and tranquil we ended up staying a lot longer than we had anticipated, but it was well worth it. Definitely worth a visit

We will certainly use it again. —— [English] We used Mr Rossano' agency for the car journey between Pisa airport to our hotel in Liguria.

I would like to add that Italy prevents you from returning but abandons you there, does not give you instructions on what to do through someone, so we are rightly very worried. heartfelt thanks to our agent Rossano.

(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed visiting the Basilica of Sestri Levante. It is located in the historic center of the city. It is an imposing white building, easily spotted. Starting from the main square, walking a short distance you will find the Basilica of Santa Maria di Nazareth, dating back to the 17th century, when the small village decided to expand and take the form it has today . However, the facade as we see it now dates from 1837-1840 and was built in a neoclassical style, refined and linear, as was the art of the time. Only two bell towers remain from the original core, which, however, were only decorated later and therefore offer a very interesting mix of different eras. The history of the building is even older, as verified testimonies report that a chapel dedicated to the Virgin Mary was already there in 1368. I advise you not just to look at the exterior facade, but to cross the threshold and lose yourself in the splendor of the Interior, which also houses a famous wooden Pieta by Aton Maria Maragliano. I recommend this visit. I am attaching some photos. Please put a thumbs up, a smiley etc... under the review or photos. It's always nice to get nice feedback. Good ride. Eric Tison. F57 Féy (Metz. Moselle. France). (Original) J'ai bien aimé visiter la Basilique de Sestri Levante. Elle est située dans le centre historique de la ville. C'est un imposant bâtiment blanc, facilement repérable. En partant de la place principale, en parcourant une courte distance, vous trouverez la basilique de Santa Maria di Nazareth, datant  du 17e siècle, lorsque le petit village a décidé de s'agrandir et de prendre la forme qu'il a aujourd'hui. Cependant, la façade telle qu'on la voit actuellement date de 1837-1840 et a été construite dans un style néoclassique, épuré et linéaire, comme le voulait l'art de l'époque. Il ne reste que deux clochers du noyau d'origine, qui n'ont toutefois été décorés que plus tard et offrent donc un mélange très intéressant entre les différentes époques. L'histoire du bâtiment est encore plus ancienne, car des témoignages vérifiés rapportent qu'une chapelle dédiée à la Vierge Marie s'y trouvait déjà des 1368. Je vous conseille de ne pas vous contenter de regarder la façade extérieure, mais de franchir le seuil et de vous perdre dans la splendeur de l'Intérieur, qui abrite également une célèbre Pieta en bois d'Aton Maria Maragliano. Je recommande cette visite. Je joins en annexe quelques photos. Svp mettre un bravo, un smiley etc... sous l'avis ou les photos. C'est toujours agréable d'avoir des retours sympathiques. Bonne balade. Éric Tison. F57 Féy (Metz. Moselle.France).

(Translated by Google) This basilica is located in the center of Sestri and not far from the sea. After the neoclassical touch of the facade, inside - richly decorated - baroque prevails and there are some paintings worth considering (one by Fiasella). (Original) Questa basilica si trova in centro a Sestri e a poca distanza dal mare. Dopo il tocco neoclassico della facciata, all'interno - riccamente decorato - prevale il barocco e sono ospitate alcune tele da considerare sicuramente (una del Fiasella).

It is possible to learn about the history of the area from the Paleolithic up to the present day and the history of the evolution of the city of Sestri. the rooms relating to mining are interesting (the route then continues in the archaeo-mining park of Castiglione Chiavarese) and the Roman stone.

Visited Galleria Rizzi yesterday. It’s a beautiful gallery with a rich array of art and artifacts. Our guide Alessia was extremely knowledgeable and even gave our tour in perfect English (to accommodate this American). I recommend the gallery to anyone visiting Sestri who wants to learn more about Sestri Levante and Genovese art and history. I will definitely be back the next time I’m in town. Thanks, Alessia!

(Translated by Google) In a beautiful building overlooking the Bay of Silence it is possible to admire the collection of works of art put together by the Rizzo family, whose last heir decided to donate them to the State in the 1960s, on the condition that they were preserved together in a place created specifically to welcome them. The first nucleus of the story is due to the Piacenza doctor Vittorio Rizzi, but the collection only became substantial with his son Marcello, a lawyer who loved to be paid in works of art. On the three floors that make up the museum you can admire paintings, ceramics, furniture and various art objects. There is also a journey to Calvario del Magnasco. Very low entry price: 5 euros. We did a visit accompanied by a guide, with whom we spent about 40 minutes. Pay attention to the opening times because the museum is only open in spring and summer. In autumn and winter there are only sporadic openings, generally for holidays. Google's hours are not up to date, so it's best to look right on the site. (Original) In un bellissimo palazzo che si affaccia sulla Baia del Silenzio è possibile ammirare la raccolta di opere d'arte messe insieme dalla famiglia Rizzo, il cui ultimo erede decise di donarle allo Stato negli anni '60, a patto che fossero conservate, insieme, nel luogo nato appositamente per accoglierle. Il primo nucleo della racconta si deve al medico piacentino Vittorio Rizzi, ma la collezione divenne corposa solo con il figlio Marcello, avvocato che amava farsi pagare in opere d'arte. Nei tre piani che compongono il museo si possono ammirare quadri, ceramiche, mobili e vari oggetti d'arte. Presente anche un'Andata al Calvario del Magnasco. Prezzo di ingresso molto basso: 5 euro. Noi abbiamo fatto una visita accompagnata da una guida, con la quale abbiamo impiegato circa 40 minuti. Attenzione agli orari perché il museo è aperto solo in primavera ed estate. In autunno ed inverno ci sono solo aperture sporadiche, in genere per le festività. Gli orari di Google non sono aggiornati, quindi è meglio guardare proprio sul sito.

(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed seeing the Rizzi Gallery in  Sestrie Levante in Liguria (Italy). Unfortunately for me, today Monday the Rizzi gallery is closed. Maybe, is it closed every Monday? So I could only see it from the outside. The Rizzi gallery is located in the historic center, precisely via del Capuccini at number 8. It is a charming museum containing a series of very interesting wonders to discover. It is a medium-sized installation allowing you to admire paintings such as "La Cuciniera di Campi (The Cook of the Fields), "The Marriage of Saint Catherine of Ansaldo" and "The Crucifixion of Domenico Parodi" . It will be a precious moment of sharing with the whole family, to then continue your itinerary in the historic center after having had your fill of art and culture. It is advisable to equip yourself with a guide in order to know the details of each work, which deserves to be appreciated in its historical and cultural context in order to better understand the artistic history of Sestrie Levante.

(Translated by Google) Large art gallery. The paintings are mainly of a sacred background, also from the Genoese school. The most spectacular paintings: the windows open onto the bay of silence! Breathtaking. Presence of a piece of furniture carved by Maggiolini. Before being a museum, the palace was the residence of the Rizzi family. It would be interesting to be able to visit more private areas, those of daily life. Very kind staff. (Original) Nutrita pinacoteca . I dipinti sono soprattutto a sfondo sacro anche di scuola genovese. Il quadri più spettacolari : le finestre aperte sulla baia del silenzio! Da mozzafiato. Presenza di un mobile intagliato da Maggiolini . Il palazzo prima di essere museo era la residenza della famiglia Rizzi. Sarebbe interessante poter visitare aree più private, quelle del vivere quotidiano. Personale molto gentile.

Love public beach in protected cove though very busy when weather is nice.

very nice beach with smooth sand and super clear water, although it can get crowded its still worth taking a dive

Very beautiful, very popular and very busy - and with limited capacity! Get to the beach early to avoid standing in line to get a spot. Or wait until lunch when lots of people leave. Safe for kids and anyone who does not like big waves.

- Sea water is dark brown.. (August 5th,2025) + free public beach + nice town, nice scenery + still water

Beautiful bay in Sestri Levante. Worth a visit.

Wonderful relatively small beach with beautiful views and well protected by waves and most of the time the wind, it gets quickly crowded during the day and in the shade of the buildings at the beach in the late afternoon and evening

Calm beach great for little children. The only downside is some days the water is absolutely littered in plastic . Enough to put you off .

We had a wonderful experience at Osteria Mattana! Tucked away in the charming streets of Sestri Levante, this cozy spot offers a perfect mix of relaxed ambiance and truly delicious food. Every dish we ordered was fresh and full of flavor — you can tell the ingredients are local and carefully selected. The seafood, in particular, was outstanding. We enjoyed the food so much that we ended up going twice during my stay — it was that good. The staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive despite managing so many customers and they made us feel right at home. Whether you’re visiting Sestri Levante for the first time or returning, Osteria Mattana is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back next time I’m in town!

We loved the whole concept of this restaurant. The food was fresh, tasty, simple but authentic. Service was excellent, wine was great. We would 100% return and definitely recommend ❤️

You know it should be good when people are queuing outside and almost block the whole street. We were not disappointed with the authentic kitchen, fast service, great and fresh flavors. Some sound dampening materials would be nice to reduce the reverb in the room, but that didn’t spoil our dinner. It’s not the chill dinner you’re used to when dining out, but it’s an experience I would highly recommend.

The service was amazing, the guy that sited us was very kind, funny and he explained us everything we asked about. Even tho the food looks simple on plate, but it was incredibly tasty including white wine. Very satisfied with place. Definitely we are coming back again.

No reservations, just walk-in. They open at 19:30, and we arrived at 19:10 and there was already a short que. Very tasty food, reasonable prices. We got 5 dished in total for the 2 of us. But 4 would have been enough.

A lovely authentic dinner, we especially loved the vibe. However, dinner was slightly rushed (probably due to its popularity). Highly recommend regardless!

I think it’s #1 restaurant in Sestri. True Italian ambience 🎶 food is simple and delicious, feels like grandmothers kitchen. L O V E

We did the chef's menu and wine pairing and everything was exceptional. Service was great- explained everything to us and learned so much about the area and what is local to Sestri. Federico was the best. Would highly recommend for a nice dinner when you are in town. Perfect view of the sunset from inside as well.

Outstanding food and wine experience in Sestri Levante . A top chef knows how to match japanese and italian ingredients and traditions in absolutely exquisite recipes . Well needed wine pairings make it be the One in an otherwise so poor restaurant panorama . A little treasure absolutely to be discovered!

Such a nice place, we absolutely loved it. The service, the vibe, the music, THE FOOD, THE WINE. I’d strongly suggest to get the set menu with wine pairing. We tried some really interesting wines, our favourite was Licontro.

Great food but think it’s worth mentioning I left hungry. I never left hungry after having a 6 course tasting menu, usually that is too much. Here the portions are really tiny. So perhaps worth seeing this meal as a treat and not so much as actual dinner.

Balin is hands down the most creative and avant- guarde restaurant in Liguria. Sara’s creativity in the kitchen will blow your mind. Working with local produce with influences from all over the world, from Asia to South America. If you’re a foodie and you like good wines, make sure you stop by and order a bottle of Pazzesco with your dinner. You’ll thank me later. Bravi ragazzi!

A truly lovely dinner in an elegant beachy section of Sestri Levanti! The food was the star of the show, with an outstanding steamed fish appetizer and a fried mackerel main course decorated beautifully with vegetables that looked like embroidery. Both were flavor explosions.

What an amazing and refreshing experience!! We had a tasting menu and wine pairing for two and we couldn’t be happier. Pleasant atmosphere, food prepared and presented in a modern and ambitious way, with influences from new Nordic trends. Great rich flavors and curated combinations, respecting local products and producers. You can see the menu has been thought through and designed with care. I would even dared more contrasts, given the solid base behind every dish, but I understand the context where the restaurant is located and the clientele maybe expecting more “Italian” mild flavors. Great service, listening, adapting and recommending right things, without making a big fuzz about it nor teaching any stiff lesson. Fell in love with the variety and openness of the wine list, from edgy French to mad Ligurian wines. Thanks, we couldn’t have been happier tonight.

There was no indication that this is a gourmet restaurant with tiny portions, but the "pescato" I ordered for 22 € was really way too small, even for a child, and there was no garnish. So I was more hungry after the dinner than before it. If somebody wants to eat, not just taste food, you can find a better place to satisfy your hunger with the same amount of money.

Beautiful location, excellent service and delicious food make Mapi a must for a long lazy lunch.Each of us had a salad in particular the Caesar Salad was as good as any we’ve tasted. The desserts too are so tasty and add in very drinkable local ales I highly recommend Mapi.

A lovely little spot with shaded tables overlooking the beach - also has sun loungers. We came here for drinks and to relax in the sun.

Food was excellent, service was phenomenal, chef was generous and skilled. It is a little on the pricey side, but I feel that I got my money’s worth.

10/10. My man Maurizio deserves a raise and the best life a man get get 💚🤍❤️

The location is excellent, the view is lovely and the service great. Unfortunately the kitchen does not have the same standard. The tartare was bland and mushy, the Cappun Magru was stale and the vongole way too salty. But as other reviewers seem happy, maybe we just caught the chef on a bad day.

I ordered beetroot risotto with scallop. It tastes like fried onions with huge amount of fat.

Beautiful view! A little pricy (12€ per cocktail) but totally worth it. The cocktails were really good, they used a good amount of alcohol. We got some free tapas (pizzas, chips, olives, etc.) We will be back!

Great views over the Bay of Silence. Cocktails are a bit pricier than others in the area but also seemed a bit better made, so you’re not just paying for the view! Nice aperitivo snacks.

Had apertivos here, very tasty drinks (aperol spritz, negroni, amd moscow mule). The snacks were great too, especially the little grilled ham and cheese sammies, the little pizza slices were also great

Food was pretty low quality and it took an age to get served. But lovely location by beach in Bay of Silence.

Lovely view across Baie di Silencio. Gin and tonic comes with a 80% full glass of gin! Plenty of ice and served with nibbles. Come again? Absolutely yes.

Really nice beach bar, very friendly staff and good drinks. A bit pricy tho.

Great team works here! Good vibe, best view of the bay!

The food was very good 🍝, especially the pasta – absolutely delicious. However, the fish dish was a bit lacking in sides 🐟. The waiter wasn’t very friendly with foreign customers 😕, but the place itself was beautiful and well-kept 🌅✨.

Laureen was absolutely wonderful. Made us feel really welcome and helped us choose our meals. The focaccia and olive oil was unreal. Cuttlefish salad... Zucchini flower stuffed with anchovies. Things I would have never normally tried but was very delicious. Trofie was not to be missed. Sesame crusted tuna beautiful... Go here. 💗

We stayed in Sestri 3 days and La Cantina del Polpo is must visit! The quality of the ingredients is outstanding. So is their combination. We went twice. I took todays catch both times and it was perfect. My husband also tried the meat which he enjoyed. Finally, the tiramisu was among the best I tried in my life. The personnel is professional and very helpful. Thank you 😊

We stopped for a snack and wine to shelter from the sun. I fell in love with the interiors of the restaurant. The wine was a great refreshment and the snacks, just what was needed. Service was great too! Definitely worth a visit.

All was very good and very tasty food. Excellent service. Thank very much for the good time during our meal.

My group spotted the owner carrying in fresh seafood for the evening and decided to dine here for the evening. We were treated to one of the greatest meals. All of the meals were top notch, made with fresh catch. The seafood pasta here was easily the best pasta I’ve ever had, which is no small feat.

Thanks to Laureen and the rest of the team, just had a great meal with top notch service, we'll be talking about this one for a while, keep up the great work 🍻

Such a special culinary experience — top-quality and so tasty! 😊 Huge thanks for the amazing food and warm hospitality. 🙏

Such a cute little eatery just out of the center of Sestri. Great vibe, amazing food, and great wine selection. It’s super cozy inside and perfect for year round dining. The menu is always changing based on available ingredients and the chef really puts her all into creating new and creative dishes. I’ve been multiple times and have never been disappointed. Prices are on par with the quality. Highly recommend 👌🏼

We had an amazing night here. The host was very friendly and took the time to explain the whole menu to us. The food was incredible and the wine was perfect. Would highly recommend this place.

Best restaurant in Sestri Levante. A new menu every day. Great service and tasty.

This gastronomic restaurant is really worth the small detour from the historic center of Sestri lenante. We shared a starter, both had a main dish, shared a cheese plate and both had dessert. Because everything was so nice, fresh and tasty!

I would definitely recommend this restaurant! It is one of the best in Sestri Levante. I love the creativity of the chef in creating the menu. The food was absolutely delicious as was the wine. Also the service was great! If you are looking for good food and want to give your tastebuds a treat you should definitely eat here. Also a great choice in nice wines. We had treated ourselves to a unique bottle of wine with the typical blend of the three famous grapes from Cinque de Terre.

Great food, wines, and staff! Go there and enjoy! We went two times in a row.

(Translated by Google) I really enjoyed visiting the Fascie Rossi Palace in Sestri Levante in Liguria (Italy). It's impossible not to notice this palace when passing by! It is a distinctive red structure, striking for its unusual shapes inspired by Genoa's Mackenzie Castle, which in the early 1900s was a real landmark for those who wanted to build modern buildings with a recognizable style. Today it occupies two rather prestigious foundations, that of the civic library, which houses ancient and modern volumes, and that of the Musel Civic Museum, which tells the history of the city since the prehistoric era and partly of the region. by presenting many decidedly interesting objects from the excavations. We will note some very pretty old photographs of people and informative films on the evolution of the region. I am attaching some photos. Please put a thumbs up, a smiley etc... under the review or photos to encourage me. It's always nice to get nice feedback... Enjoy your visit. Eric Tison. F57 Féy (Metz. Moselle. France). (Original) J'ai bien aimé visiter le palais Fascie Rossi à Sestri Levante en Ligurie (Italie). Il est impossible de ne pas remarquer ce palais en passant devant ! Il s'agit d'une structure rouge et caractéristique, frappant par ses formes inhabituelles inspirées du château Mackenzie de Gênes, qui, au début des années 1900, était un véritable point de repère pour ceux qui voulaient construire des bâtiments modernes au style reconnaissable. Elle occupe aujourd'hui deux fondations plutôt prestigieuses, celle de la bibliothèque civique, qui abrite des tomes anciens et modernes, et celle du Musée Civique Musel, qui raconte l'histoire de la ville depuis l'ère préhistorique et en partie de la région en présentant de nombreux objets résolument intéressants sortis des fouilles. On notera des bien jolies photographie anciennes des gens et des films instructifs sur l'évolution de la région. Je joins en annexe quelques photos. Svp mettre un bravo, un smiley etc... sous l'avis ou les photos pour m'encourager. C'est toujours agréable d'avoir des retours sympathiques... Bonne visite. Éric Tison. F57 Féy (Metz. Moselle.France).

(Translated by Google) If both this and the shore location remained open longer it would be excellent (Original) Rimanesse aperta di più sia questa che la sede a riva sarebbe ottimo

(Translated by Google) It's a shame that the closures are so frequent. A library MUST always be open. I feel a lot of discontent about this. People want to read 🎉 (Original) Peccato le chiusure così frequenti. Una biblioteca DEVE sempre essere aperta. Sento molto malcontento riguardo a questo. La gente vuole leggere 🎉

(Translated by Google) Two and a half days of closure are the reflection of a country in last place in terms of number of readers and education (Original) Due giorni e mezzo di chiusura sono lo specchio di un paese agli ultimi posti per numero di lettori e scolarizzazione

(Translated by Google) Beautiful but two and a half days of weekly opening is really little for a town like Sestri Levante (Original) Bella ma due giorni e mezzo di apertura settimanale è davvero poco per una cittadina come Sestri Levante

(Translated by Google) Wide choice of books of all categories. Reading/consultation rooms. Workstations (Personal Computer) for internet access. Vending machine for drinks. Public toilets. Periodic organization of events (presentations/exhibitions). Numerous car parks (payment and parking disc) nearby. (Original) Ampia scelta di libri di tutte le categorie. Sale per letture/consultazioni. Postazioni (Personal Computer) per accesso a internet. Distributore automatico di bevande. Bagni pubblici. Periodiche organizzazioni di eventi (presentazioni/mostre). Numerosi parcheggi (pagamento e disco orario) nelle vicinanze.

(Translated by Google) It certainly has an excellent location but it's a shame that opening hours are limited and days are closed... (Original) sicuramente ha una posizione ottima ma peccato l'orario ristretto e i giorni chiusi...

There's something magical about Sestri Levante already. Not too crowded even during August, it remains a place I love to stay in summer. Tourists prefer to rush to cinque terre. You can choose to go with the small lidos or just directly dive in the water, and its quality is correct. I removed one star because during some days, the water is not as transparent as some other places. But overall, not too dirty. Just note that the sunset will not land there, if you want to see the sun set over the ocean, just go to the other beaches around.

Wonderful.. Sestri Levante is an amazing place. We will return one day!

Been here for years since I was a kid and this review makes my heart very heavy :( In the last few years, this Bay become totally overcrowded, dirty & horrible during the summer. You can clearly see feces floating on the surface of the see very often. Despite the fact of signs with restrictions, you can hear kids blasting music every time during the day and the night, playing football, using tents, smoking, leaving amount of trash around. The prices of the bars and restaurants in this area absolutely ridiculous and the quality of the food is absolutely mediocre. So sad and depressing.

Peaceful, quiet place in beggining of may. Awesome views. Wonder, how it looks like in a season? In may it was clean and tidy, almost no people.

It is really nice place ; very kind locals and good food and wine

The silence there is not a myth. Listening to the waves and seeing THIS landscape is the most relaxing activity you can do there. We met zero tourists (at february), which is really surprising for a beautiful place like this. I recommand without hesitation !

It is nice, worth to see. At sun setting down a glass of wine makes special romantic atmosphere.

Really nice old church and next to the ruïnes of a old church

Very charming place on the promontory overlooking the sea.

Silent place for rest and overview of beach

Wow!

Nice place

(Translated by Google) The Church of San Nicolò can be reached by walking up a short (steep) stretch to the left of the Church of S. Maria di Nazareth. On the route the ruins of the church of S. Caterina bombed in the Second World War. On the opposite side on a wall someone has cemented a round bas-relief of a Madonna with child. Nice view of the Bay of Silence from the space behind the church. 👍Your like is welcome. (Original) La Chiesa di San Nicolò si raggiunge salendo a piedi un breve tratto (ripido) a sx della Chiesa di S. Maria di Nazareth. Sul percorso i ruderi della chiesa di S. Caterina bombardata nella seconda guerra mondiale. Dal lato opposto su un muro qualcuno ha cementato un tondo bassorilievo di una Madonna con bambino. Bella vista della Baia del Silenzio dallo spazio dietro la chiesa. 👍Un vostro like è gradito.

(Translated by Google) It's a small, ancient church that incorporates into its main structure from the 12th century parts that were already secular. Dedicated to Saint Nicholas and located on a peninsula on the island of Sestro since the Middle Ages, it's a must-see if you're nearby and can skip a few minutes of beach time to admire the ancient spiritual center of the citadel. In the surrounding area, the viewpoint overlooking the Bay of Silence and the Mediterranean wilderness make for a delightful stroll. (Original) Es una iglesia pequeña, antiquísima, que incorpora en su estructura principal del siglo XII partes que ya entonces eran seculares. Dedicada a san Nicolás y ubicada en la Isla de Sestro, desde la Edad Media, en una península, es una visita obligada si estás cerca y puedes saltarte unos minutos de playa para admirar el antiguo centro espiritual de la ciudadela. En sus alrededores, el mirador hacia la bahía del Silencio y la naturaleza ruderal mediterránea hacen del paseo un encanto.

What a great place! Every single dish we ordered was amazing. The ceviche was especially good. We tried some of the alcoholfree drinks, and they were delicious too. The owners are super nice and you can tell that they put their heart into this! We can definitely recommend it.

We went to Xola on our last night in Sestri Levante and what a fantastic experience. The food was tremendous and the spicy margaritas made by Luca were so good that you must all try them. We met Luca after and he was such a nice person, no wonder the drinks were so good. The fish tacos, Al pastor tacos and quesadilla had so much wonderful flavor. We ate every bit and the portions were not small. Thank you Xola for the great dinner and best of luck!

What a peaceful and lovely spot — simple tables, shaded from the sun, just a few steps away from the beach where children can play while waiting for their food. We were warmly welcomed by a humble, smiling host who led us to an equally kind and attentive server. We started with a perfectly mixed whiskey sour — true to the Mexican style and absolutely delicious. Our kids had a quesadilla and a hamburger — both of exceptional quality. As for us, we basically ordered one of everything else on the menu. Every single dish was exquisite. The food rivals that of far more expensive and acclaimed Mexican restaurants. The fact that this place isn't fully booked weeks in advance must be because it's slightly tucked away — a hidden gem behind the (with a few exceptions) rather mediocre Italian eateries in Sestri Levante. Go here. Eat everything. You won’t regret it. - family of six, including a baby in a stroller.

We went there for dinner and were very satisfied. Delicious tapas and good fries, portion sizes could be a bit bigger. Very good lemonades. Also the location outside at the beach is beautiful in the evening.

This was one of the best restaurant experiences I've ever had. The service was excellent. The crispy octopus taco and al pastor were delicious! I cannot recommend going to XOLA enough!

We went to Xola tonight for the third time. The first time we went for Sunday brunch. The Huevos Rancheros and the Chilaquiles were delicious! We were there last night for a nightcap. The Mezcalina & the Cantarita were very good. Tonight we went for dinner. We enjoyed the Tacos Al Pastor and the Quesadilla. For dessert we had the Tamal di Ciocolatto and the Torta di Limone. Both were excellent! Each time we went, the service was excellent and everyone was very friendly. I thought the prices of the food and drink were very reasonable. When you visit Sestri Levante, make sure you visit Xola! You won't be sorry!

Perfect location by the Beach. The food is sooo good - and this is really worth the visit! Try the tuna tartare! But everything is good. They open at 17.00 ☀️

(Translated by Google) A very positive impression at first sight, later confirmed by the experience spent here for a very simple night. Everything was taken care of, clean, and the breakfast was no exception, fantastic views. It was worth traveling a bit from the sea to get to the property. So excellent rating. (Original) Un'impressione molto positiva a prima vista, confermata poi dall'esperienza passata qui per una semplicissima notte. Tutto curato, pulito, e la colazione non è stata da meno, panorama fantastici. È valsa la pena fare un po di strada dal mare per arrivare fino alla struttura Quindi voto ottimo.

See you next year. (Original) Anche quest'anno con le mie amiche abbiamo trascorso un weekend in questo angolo di pace a due passi dal mare. Grazie Franca per la tua accoglienza.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful square in front of the church! The church itself was unfortunately closed. Beautiful view of the surroundings, more than worth the climb to the top! (Original) Prachtig plein voor de kerk! De kerk zelf was helaas gesloten. Mooi uitzicht op de omgeving, de klim naar boven meer dan waard!

(Translated by Google) beautiful church in a small reality. Too bad it's very close to the highway. here lit up festively on a night at the end of August. (Original) bella chiesa in piccola realtà. peccato molto vicina all’autostrada. qui illuminata a festa in una notte di fine agost.

(Translated by Google) Parish established in 1060, subsequently subjected to the "Plebs Sigestri" of Santo Stefano del Ponte, it obtained autonomy again in 1678. The new church, rebuilt in its current location, at the behest of the noble Genoese Gentile family, following the disposal of the previous building ( which stood near the cemetery), has perfect architectural proportions and is maintained with particular care, lavished by the archpriest and collaborators. It is worth a visit, also and above all for the spiritual climate that can be enjoyed in this place. The consecration took place on August 27, 1958, by Monsignor Giuseppe Stella, bishop of "Luni-Sarzana and Brugnato". (Original) Parrocchia istituita nel 1060, successivamente assoggettata alla "Plebs Sigestri" di Santo Stefano del Ponte, ottenne nuovamente autonomia nel 1678. La nuova chiesa, ricostruita nel luogo attuale, per volere della nobile famiglia genovese dei Gentile, in seguito alla dismissione del precedente edificio (che sorgeva in prossimità del camposanto), presenta proporzioni architettoniche perfette ed è mantenuta con particolare cura, profusa dall'arciprete e collabolatori. Merita una visita, anche e soprattutto per il clima spirituale, di cui si può beneficiare in tale luogo. La consacrazione avvenne il giorno 27 agosto 1958, ad opera di Mons. Giuseppe Stella, vescovo di "Luni-Sarzana e Brugnato".

(Translated by Google) Parish in a position that was once very beautiful, now right next to the motorway, as if to protect travellers. Perhaps what it has always done since ancient times. (Original) Parrocchia in posizione che anticamente era bellisssima, ora proprio vicino all' autostrada, come a proteggere i viandanti. Forse quello che ha sempre fatto dai tempi antichi.

(Translated by Google) A small, beautiful, graceful, well-preserved church. Very cute (Original) Una chiesa raccolta, bella, graziosa, ben conservata. Molto carin

(Translated by Google) Located in a wonderful location, it's a shame for the circumstances under which I visited it. (Original) Ubicata in una posizione stupenda , peccato x la circostanza per la quale l'ho visitata.

(Translated by Google) A very disappointing experience. I ordered a chicken sandwich and found a slice of cheese still wrapped in plastic! Some of the plastic had even fused to the bread. When we pointed this out, we expected the sandwich to be remade from scratch. Instead, the waiter simply removed the slice and gave us the same sandwich back, as if nothing had happened. Unprofessional behavior and a complete disregard for food safety. I won't be returning. (Original) Esperienza molto deludente. Ho ordinato un panino con il pollo e all’interno ho trovato una sottiletta ancora con la plastica! Parte della plastica si era anche fusa con il pane. Quando lo abbiamo fatto notare, ci aspettavamo almeno che il panino venisse rifatto da zero. Invece, il cameriere ha semplicemente tolto la sottiletta e ci ha restituito lo stesso panino, come se nulla fosse. Un comportamento poco professionale e davvero poco attento alla sicurezza alimentare. Non tornerò.

(Translated by Google) Good place to stop for something good to eat. The focaccias and fried foods are good. Stopped by for lunch for a quick bite. They don't provide table service but the guys are very kind and nice. Took raw Focaccia and cheese and anchovies and chips. Not really average beer. Everything was good, unfortunately only 4 anchovies but still good. Prices in line with the Ligurian Riviera. (Original) Buon posto dove fermarsi a mangiare qualcosa di buono. Buone le focaccette e i fritti . Fermato a pranzo per un pasto veloce. Non effettuano servizio a tavolo ma i ragazzi sono molto gentili e simpatici. Preso Focaccia crudo e formaggio e acciughe e patatine. Birra media non proprio media. Buono tutto, purtroppo acciughe solo 4 ma cmq buone. Prezzi in linea alla riviera Ligure.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful, clean, and wonderfully attentive staff. The products we purchased were very good and at a fair price. Highly recommended. (Original) Hermoso chisco, limpio, la atención del personal fue maravillosa. Los productos que consumimos estaban muy bien y a un precio justo. Súper recomendado

(Translated by Google) I ordered a panino, ice cream, and water. I waited 5 minutes for the ice cream, 10 minutes for the water, and 20 minutes for the panino. (Original) Zamówiłem panino, lody i wodę. Na lody czekałem 5 minut, na wodę 10 minut a na panino 20 minut

(Translated by Google) Absurd prices for a kiosk. I paid €6 for two coffees with a tiny spoonful of gelato inside (what they call "Affogatino"). You're essentially paying €1 for a coffee and €2 for a small spoonful of gelato—excessive, I'd say. There's not even table service to justify this price. (Original) Prezzi assurdi per un chiosco. Ho pagato 6 euro per due caffè con un cucchiaino minuscolo di gelato dentro (quello che loro definiscono “Affogatino”). Praticamente paghi 1 euro di caffè e 2 euro per un cucchiaino piccolo di gelato, direi eccessivo. Non c’è nemmeno il servizio al tavolo che potrebbe giustificare questo importo.

(Translated by Google) A kiosk on the Sestri Levante seafront, offering seating but no table service. A great choice for a snack or quick lunch. (Original) Chiosco sul lungo mare di Sestri Levante, con possibilità di sedersi ma senza servizio al tavolo. Ottima scelta per uno snack o pranzo veloce.

(Translated by Google) The location seems top but unfortunately my dog ​​died so I didn't go. They also serve dog meat. I hope not mine. The online reservation was interesting anyway, excellent conversation skills of the waitress who managed to entertain me for a long time talking to me about the aforementioned reservation. Great chat, she even made herself available to have a few words since I was a bit down because of my dead dog. I recommend CANdamente (Original) La location sembra top ma purtroppo è morto il mio cane quindi non sono andato. Servono anche carne di cani. Spero non il mio. La prenotazione online comunque è stata interessante, ottima capacità conversativa della cameriera che è riuscita a intrattenermi a lungo parlandomi della suddetta prenotazione. Ottima chiacchierata, si è resa disponibile anche a fare due parole dato che stavo un po' giù per via del mio cane morto. Consiglio CANdamente

(Translated by Google) The cemetery is well-maintained, but it's a shame that the area to the left of the entrance is an open-air construction site, where there's a bit of everything and it certainly doesn't make for a pretty sight... It would be desirable to have a fence that is in keeping with the decorum that should be present next to a cemetery, hiding containers, caravans, building materials, etc. from view. (Original) Cimitero ben curato, peccato per l'area a sinistra dell"ingresso che è un cantiere a cielo aperto, dove vi è un po' di tutto e non fà certo un bel vedere ... sarebbe auspicabile una recinzione consona al decoro che dovrebbe esservi accanto ad un cimitero, che nasconda alla vista container, roulotte, materiale edile, ecc.

(Translated by Google) Small and well-kept cemetery, as soon as you enter and raise your head, many trees surround the cemetery. (Original) Cimitero piccolo e ben curato, appena entri alzando la testa tanti alberi che circondano ii cimitero.

Bring water and heed advice in signs near trail entrance. (See last photo for sign that appears near trail entrance adjacent to cemetery). We accessed the trail from near cemetery to begin our hike - to right of cemetery - free parking here. This route is very rigorous uneven climb and requires good walking shoes or sport sandals. We took a different route down which took us to area near shops in town - see photos. This route was much less rigorous, but still a climb but many areas were not nearly as hard to traverse as trail from cemetery. We were not able to locate the entrance to trail that is just past Ice Cream Angels ( but returned that way)- see photos in case they are helpful.

(Translated by Google) An unmissable excursion for lovers of the sea and mountains. Among woods, Mediterranean scrub, strawberry trees, myrtle, mushroom olive trees, I found two ferée and two ovules that I didn't pick, heather, maritime pines, rocks and panoramic points with wooden tables and benches you have the opportunity to live in an enchanting oasis. Worth mentioning are the remains of the Saracen Tower, the view of Sestri Levante and Riva Trigoso, hidden coves and ecstatic views. It's not difficult, I confess I went with sandals and slippers but returned with sneakers or trekking shoes to speed up the time and go down more easily... I would never go down again, I went alone three times, I met very kind and helpful Italian and foreign people, or in company as you prefer. (Original) Un' escursione imperdibile per gli amanti del mare e delle alture. Tra boschi, macchia mediterranea, corbezzoli, mirto, ulivi funghi, ho trovato due ferée e due ovuli che non ho colto, erica, pini marittimi, rocce e punti panoramici con tavoli e panchine in legno si ha l' opportunità di vivere in un' oasi incantevole. Da menzionare i resti della Torre Saracena, la vista su Sestri Levante e Riva Trigoso, calette nascoste e vedute estatiche. Non è difficile, confesso esserci andata con sandali e ciabatte ma tornata con scarpe da ginnastica o trekking per accelerare i tempi e scendere più agevolmente... non sarei più scesa, ci son stata tre volte in solitaria, ho conosciuto persone italiane e straniere molto gentili e disponibili, od in compagnia come preferite.

(Translated by Google) We took the path from Levanto, initially very steep but passable, once at altitude there are a few ups and downs, beautiful with several views of the sea. Fairly shaded, also suitable for children, there are no fountains. Going there and back takes about 2 hours. (Original) Abbiamo preso il sentiero da Levanto, inizialmente molto ripido ma percorribile, una volta in quota c'è un po' di saliscendi, bello con diversi scorci sul mare. Abbastanza all'ombra, idoneo anche con bambini, non ci sono fontane. Andare e tornare ci vogliono circa 2 ore.

For those who have hiked (long walked uphill), this should be easy - although the start is very rough on the legs (gets better). The views are amazing along the way. Either go for sunrise or sunset (but you can go midday too - but it will be very hot). There are benches along the way for sitting and the route is well sign posted. I did it alone and felt very comfortable, although im used to more difficult hikes. If you’re not in a rush, i would allocate 2-3 hours to enjoy it.

(Translated by Google) The path leads to Punta Manara starting from the center of Sestri Levante. From the tip you can see the Bay (Original) Il sentiero porta a punta Manara partendo dal centro di Sestri Levante. Dalla punta si può vedere la Baia

(Translated by Google) The trail to Punta Manara takes about 2 hours there and back. At the beginning of the hike from Vico del Bottone, you'll find yourself facing a fairly steep staircase. As you continue, the trail becomes easier, and at times you'll encounter some slightly steep sections with breathtaking views. (Original) Il sentiero fino a Punta Manara tra andata e ritorno si fa in circa 2 ore, all' inizio da Vico del Bottone ti trovi davanti a una scalinata abbastanza ripida, procedendo il percorso diventa più lieve a tratti puoi incontrare dei punti un po' scoscesi con vista mozzafiato.

(Translated by Google) Nice walk, suitable for children? "No"... it's fine as long as they're used to walking and not too young. Some sections of the trail may be quite challenging for younger children. (Original) Bella passeggiata, adatta ai bambini? "ni"... va bene purché siano abituati a camminare e non troppo piccoli. Alcuni tratti del sentiero possono risultare piuttoato impegnativi per i più piccini.

A missed opportunity I visited "La Cantina" on Sunday evening, Aug 10th, and booked an outside table. The location is splendid, everything neat and clean, with a marvellous scenery all around; large windows let you enjoy the vineyards even if you are sitting inside. And later at night, nice lamps form a carpet on your heads, making the whole really suggestive. But the staff was not equally welcoming. When we discovered that you can enjoy your dinner directly in the wineyards, we asked if we could move, but the cost is an additional 10 euro per person (and nobody mentioned when I booked). Not a smile, not a mention to the possibility of visiting the cellar, not a word on the "abyss" story: unintentionally, the confirmation of certain comic sketches on the poor hospitality of the Ligurians. We enjoyed the Glera offered as aperitive and decided to go on with the same wine, but the waiter didn't even pour the wine in the glasses. Quality of food was good, from entries to dessert, but when you leave the restaurant, the human interaction was so poor that your feeling is that of a missed opportunity to make it unforgettable. To make it worth a second visit, a restaurant must not be only a scenery for photo-shooting. Don't expect customers to come fully prepared, they also like to be pampered and accompanied to experience something new, and this regardless of bookings, timing and full Google documentation. And I am sorry to say that I was not satisfied under that respect.

Incredible location, food, and service. We held a welcome party for our wedding here with 100+ guests. Everyone loved the venue, the dinner, and the party. Eating in the vineyard is beautiful. The wines are excellent.

Seems like a great concept with a great product. After multiple attempts to reach the vineyard via email with no response, we walked from the train station to see the vineyard and taste the wines. However, we were unable to taste the wine or tour due to the inflexibility of the staff. We simply requested to do and pay for the tasting before the tour (especially since a group was finishing their tour upon our arrival), but we’re disregarded. No matter how good your product is, poor customer service and first impressions are vital.

Excellent selection of local wines, very well done apeeitivo and restaurant. Unique experience to try the abissi spumante.

Amazingly friendly staff and good prosecco!

Great wines, nice tour

Awesome!

A great beach to visit when the sea is rough as it has big waves to swim in.-not so common in the Mediterranean-and we loved it. The beach is patrolled by a lifeguard, so it is safe. (We went back the next day and the waves weren’t so big, but it was still nice. The only downside is the big industry further along the beach. We will go back next time we are in the area.

pebbles beach. gets Deep very fast. still nice through. and free.

Nice and clean place

Nice place by the sea

Splendid

(Translated by Google) Fantastic equipped beach. There is room for everyone, crystal clear water, showers, bathrooms and, if desired, umbrellas and sunbeds for rent. Pizza on the beach at sunset!!! (Original) Spiaggia attrezzata fantastica. C'è posto per tutti, acqua cristallina, docce, bagni e, volendo, ombrellone e lettini in affitto. Al tramonto pizza in spiaggia!!!

(Translated by Google) A beautiful public beach of pebbles and sand. On this Saturday of the weekend of August 15th, there's room for everyone, the water is crystal clear, and you can even bring your dog! Showers nearby. A great find...it's a change from the overcrowded and overrated public beaches of Cinque Terre! (Original) Très belle plage publique de galets et sable. En ce samedi du week end du 15 août , il y a de la place pour tout le monde, l'eau est cristalline et vous pouvez même y emmener votre chien ! Douches à proximité Très belle trouvaille...ça change des plages publiques surbondées et surcotées des cinq terres!

(Translated by Google) Definitely to be avoided, they made us move from our umbrella because the shadow of the nearby (empty) place had come close to us. AND ABOVE ALL THE OWNER IS REALLY SACRED AND UNLIKEABLE, WORST 50 EUROS SPENT IN MY LIFE (Original) Decisamente da evitare, ci han fatto spostate dal nostro ombrellone perché l ombra dell posto vicino(vuoto) era venuta vicino noi. E SOPRATTUTTO PROPRIETARIA DAVVERO ACIDA E POCO SIMPATICA, PEGGIORI 50 EURO SPESI DELLA MIA VITA

Very rude service — avoid this place

Decent facilities , showers locker etc. We paid 55€ for the day . Like the other reviews suggested the older lady at the counter isn't very pleasant . To be fair you don't interact with her that much so it's not a big deal hence the 4 stars.

Unbelievable how we could be treated by a lady in there .. we were chased and not at all let even to see the beach and the see And it was 5pm.. she wanted to force us to take an umbrella.. she was completely unprofessional and not well treating us as the guest . I don’t recommend at all !!!

(Translated by Google) We wanted to ask something, they didn't want to speak to us, only got a big mouth that they were closed. And it wasn't closing time yet. (Original) Wij wilde wat vragen, ze wilde ons niet te woord staan, kregen alleen een grote mond dat ze gesloten waren. En het was nog geen sluitingstijd.

(Translated by Google) The beach staff are very friendly and accommodating, the lifeguards attentive and helpful, the beach is well-attended by friendly and sociable people, and the bar is well-stocked with food and friendly, welcoming staff.

(Translated by Google) If you want to feel what it's like to pay to be treated like an intruder, then this is the perfect beach for you. The manager seems bothered by every customer and does his best to ruin your relaxation. A true "hospitality oasis"... if by hospitality you mean sour looks and an unfriendly tone. Fortunately, there are plenty of beaches in the area where you are not seen as the enemy. (Original) Dacă vreți să simțiți cum e să plătiți ca să fiți tratați ca niște intruși, atunci asta e plaja perfectă pentru voi. Administratorul pare deranjat de fiecare client și face tot posibilul să îți taie cheful de relaxare. O adevărată „oază de ospitalitate”… dacă prin ospitalitate înțelegi priviri acre și ton neprietenos. Din fericire, există destule plaje în zonă unde nu ești privit ca un inamic.

(Translated by Google) A very nice little amphitheater, intimate and welcoming, with friendly and helpful staff. It's located in a wonderful spot on the slope of the eastern peninsula, amidst the picturesque views of Sestri, just steps from the water. The concert itself was superb; the band was great, and the acoustics were practically perfect. (Original) Un piccolo anfiteatro molto carino, intimo e accogliente, con personale gentile e disponibile. È situato in una location meravigliosa sulla salita della penisola di levante, tra gli scorci suggestivi di Sestri, a pochi passi dall'acqua. Il concerto in sé era super, grande band e l'acustica era pressoché ottimale.

(Translated by Google) Welcoming theater in its not enormous size. Very good acoustics (the mother of a musician, sound technician, "hears" the music...)

(Original) Teatro accogliente nella sua nn enorme entità. Acustica molto buona (la mamma di un musicista fonico tecnico del suono "sente" la musica...)

(Translated by Google) I stumbled upon this aquarium quite by chance – I wouldn't consciously visit a facility that keeps animals in captivity. My impression on site was all the more shocking: overcrowded, algae-covered tanks, some of the animals seemed apathetic, and generally poor conditions. Many of the aquariums are far too small for the species living in them. The water quality was visibly poor, and some tanks were neglected. Not only was there a lack of space, but also of retreat options or a species-appropriate habitat design. What's particularly irritating is that the facility apparently doesn't see any fundamental problem with exhibiting marine animals under these conditions – on the contrary, they defend the concept with emotional arguments rather than facts. I respect voluntary commitment – but those who keep animals bear responsibility. And this responsibility doesn't end with the statement "we're doing our best." Anyone who can't meet the standards of humane animal husbandry shouldn't exhibit animals. In the age of modern environmental education, there's no need for suffering animals behind glass. It takes education, empathy – and the courage to leave old concepts behind. Ho visitato this aquarium per pure caso – not entrerei mai volontariamente in una struttura che tiene animali in cattività. Proprio per questo l'esperienza è stateta particolarmente scioccante: vasche sovraffollate e sporche, pesci visible stressati e generali conditions inadette alla detenzione di marine animals. Molti aquari sono chiaramente troppo piccoli per le specie ospitate. The water of the torbida, with evidenti di alghe e trascuratezza. Mancano spazio, rifugi and ambienti minimamente idonei al benessere animals. This colpisce maggiormente è l'atteggiamento difensivo della struttura, che justifica this condition with arguments emotivi invece di confrontare il problema in modo serio e tecnico. Rispetto il lavoro volontario, ma chi sceglie di tenere animalsi, ha also il dovere di garantirne il benessere. This is not possible, the solution can only be used in sports. The modern ambiente education is based on a small number of animal objects in the glass. Servono conoscenza, coerenza e il coraggio di abbandonare modelsli obsoleti. (Original) Ich bin eher zufällig auf dieses Aquarium gestoßen – bewusst würde ich keine Einrichtung besuchen, in der Tiere in Gefangenschaft gehalten werden. Umso schockierender war mein Eindruck vor Ort: Überfüllte, veralgte Becken, teils apathisch wirkende Tiere und allgemein schlechte Haltungsbedingungen. Viele der Aquarien sind viel zu klein für die darin lebenden Arten. Die Wasserqualität war sichtbar schlecht, manche Becken verwahrlost. Es fehlte nicht nur an Platz, sondern auch an Rückzugsmöglichkeiten oder einer artgerechten Gestaltung der Lebensräume. Besonders irritierend: Die Einrichtung sieht offenbar kein grundsätzliches Problem darin, Meerestiere unter diesen Bedingungen zu zeigen – im Gegenteil, man verteidigt das Konzept mit emotionalen Argumenten statt mit Fakten. Ich respektiere freiwilliges Engagement – aber wer Tiere hält, trägt Verantwortung. Und diese Verantwortung endet nicht bei der Erklärung „wir tun unser Bestes“. Wer den Ansprüchen einer tiergerechten Haltung nicht gerecht werden kann, sollte keine Tiere ausstellen. In Zeiten moderner Umweltbildung braucht es keine leidenden Tiere hinter Glas. Es braucht Aufklärung, Empathie – und den Mut, alte Konzepte hinter sich zu lassen. Ho visitato questo acquario per puro caso – non entrerei mai volontariamente in una struttura che tiene animali in cattività. Proprio per questo l’esperienza è stata particolarmente scioccante: vasche sovraffollate e sporche, pesci visibilmente stressati e condizioni generali inadatte alla detenzione di animali marini. Molti acquari sono chiaramente troppo piccoli per le specie ospitate. L’acqua era torbida, con evidenti segni di alghe e trascuratezza. Mancano spazio, rifugi e ambienti minimamente idonei al benessere animale. Ciò che colpisce maggiormente è l’atteggiamento difensivo della struttura, che giustifica queste condizioni con argomenti emotivi invece di affrontare il problema in modo serio e tecnico. Rispetto il lavoro volontario, ma chi sceglie di tenere animali, ha anche il dovere di garantirne il benessere. E se questo non è possibile, la soluzione più onesta è smettere di esporli. L’educazione ambientale moderna può e deve fare a meno di animali sofferenti dietro un vetro. Servono conoscenza, coerenza e il coraggio di abbandonare modelli obsoleti.

Nice ruins on top of the hill next to the new church

Amazing Panorama and location

(Translated by Google) A place of memory: an ancient oratory dedicated to Saint Catherine of Alexandria, destroyed by Allied bombing on 27 August 1944. A plaque commemorates the event. Spectacular view of the Baia del Silenzio and beautiful walk towards the Sestri Levante promontory. (Original) Un luogo della memoria: un antico oratorio dedicato a Santa Caterina di Alessandria, distrutto dai bombardamenti alleati il 27 agosto 1944. Una targa ricorda l'evento. Vista spettacolare sulla Baia del Silenzio e bella camminata verso il promontorio di Sestri Levante.

(Translated by Google) These remains are what remains of the Oratory of Saint Catherine, built in the 1500s and destroyed by the "Allies," always so preoccupied with destroying religious buildings and murdering civilians during their barbaric invasion of Italy. There is a plaque commemorating the victims who here, as throughout Liguria, had to pay for American war crimes. (Original) Estos restos son lo que queda del oratorio de santa Catalina, construido en los 1500 y destruido por los «Aliados», siempre tan preocupados por destruir edificios religiosos y asesinar civiles en su barbárico paso por Italia. Hay una placa que recuerda a las víctimas que aquí, como en toda la Liguria, tuvieron que pagar por los crímenes de guerra estadounidenses.

(Translated by Google) Originally the Oratory of Santa Caterina d'Alessandria, ancient seat of the Confraternity of Santa Caterina Vergine Martire (now in the church of San Pietro in Vincoli), built on the peninsula of Sestri Levante near the medieval church of San Nicolò dell'Isola, it was destroyed by Allied air bombing on 27 August 1944; only a few days earlier, a large part of the important artistic-religious heritage present inside the building had been prudently sheltered in nearby churches. There remain the solemn remains that the Brotherhood still guards as a "memory shrine", expressly dedicated to the memory of the victims of the war bombings. Stunning panorama over the Bay of Silence. Exceptionally, the site is open to the public during the FAI Days or to host events. (Original) Originario Oratorio di Santa Caterina d’Alessandria, antica sede della Confraternita di Santa Caterina Vergine Martire (ora nella chiesa di San Pietro in Vincoli), edificato sulla penisola di Sestri Levante nei pressi della chiesa medievale di San Nicolò dell’Isola, fu distrutto dal bombardamento aereo alleato del 27 Agosto 1944; soltanto pochi giorni prima, gran parte dell’importante patrimonio artistico-religioso presente all’interno dell’edificio era stato prudentemente messo al riparo nelle chiese vicine. Rimangono i solenni resti che la Confraternita ancora custodisce come “sacrario della memoria”, espressamente dedicato al ricordo delle vittime dei bombardamenti bellici. Panorama stupendo sulla Baia del Silenzio. Eccezionalmente il sito viene aperto al pubblico durante le Giornate FAI o per ospitare manifestazioni.

This is what remains of the oratory of Santa Caterina dall Alessandria (Original) La struttura del oratorio è stata distrutta da un bombardamento del 1944 questo è ciò che rimane dell'oratorio di Santa Caterina dall Alessandria

(Translated by Google) The position of these ruins is suggestive, not of practical value, but characteristic. Well-kept place and the statue of the Saint is very pretty. From the upper part you can glimpse a wonderful panorama of the Bay of Silence. (Original) Suggestiva la posizione di questi ruderi, non di praticale valore, ma caratteristici. Luogo ben curato e molto graziosa la statua della Santa. Dalla parte alta di intravvede un meraviglioso panorama sulla Baia del silenzio.

Nice hike (about an hour from Riva Trigoso) with the reward of a magnificent view from the top of Punta Manara. I warmly recommend this to everyone with at least a mid to good physical condition. Also try to go at a cool time of the day or you may be cooked by the sun and the heat.

What a view! It takes some climbing to get there but is worth it! Take water with you if you do the loop to Sestri, on warm days you will need it.

Nice hike with beautiful views over Sestri Levante and Riva Trigoso.

nice hike

Beautiful day in Liguria Shoes comfortable to walk in the hill of Sestri Levante Wonderful view on the Ligurian sea Excursion for your relax in Ligurian nature

Beautiful walk here from Sestri Levante. Well sign posted with the red and white painted way marks. Incredible views back to Sestri. Definitely worth the effort .

Superb!! Starting Point: Siestre Levante. The Hike is not so demanding. My 4 years old son really enjoyed it (in his own pace)

(Translated by Google) These public gardens, located in the center of Sestri Levante, are very well kept, you can spend a few hours relaxing there. (Original) Questi giardini pubblici,si trovano nel centro di Sestri Levante,sono molto ben tenuti,vi si può trascorrere qualche ora di relax.

(Translated by Google) Behind the Grande Albergo on the Sestri Levante seafront promenade is a charming garden area. If you have small children or are still young at heart, visit the statue of Mariele, founder of the Piccolo Coro dell'Antoniano, to whom the gardens are dedicated. The statue depicts her with arms raised while conducting a choir... but instead of children, fish emerge from the water, singing with open mouths. The game to teach children is to feed the little fish by sticking a leaf into their open mouths. I assure you, the suggestion "let's go feed the little fish" will inspire great joy from that day on. The gardens are home to majestic camphor trees that drop rust-colored or red leaves. Pick one and break it... you'll smell the distinctive camphor scent, which is used in closets to protect sweaters from moths. Enjoy your visit and leave me a like 👍 if you enjoyed these fun facts. (Original) Alle spalle del Grande Albergo sulla passeggiata a mare di Sestri Levante c'è un'area giardini di grande fascino. Se avete bambini piccoli o se siete ancora piccoli di spirito, andate presso la statua di Mariele, la fondatrice del Piccolo Coro dell'Antoniano, alla quale i giardini sono dedicati. La statua la ritrae a braccia alzate mentre dirige un coro ... ma al posto dei bambini spuntano dall'acqua tanti pesci che cantano a bocche aperte. Il gioco da insegnare ai bambini è di dare da mangiare ai pesciolini, infilando una foglia nelle bocche spalancate. Vi assicuro che la proposta "andiamo a dare da mangiare ai pesciolini" susciterà da quel giorno grande gioia. Nei giardini vivono maestosi alberi di canfora che lasciano cadere foglie color ruggine o rosse. Raccoglietene una e spezzatela ... sentirete il caratteristico profumo di canfora che si usa negli armadi per proteggere i maglioni dalle tarme. Buon giro e lasciatemi un like 👍 se queste curiosità vi sono piaciute.

very nice
