Manarola
After exiting the train, you will be greeted by an absolute PARADISE! As you look to the right, you will see vibrant, green vineyards nestled into the cliffs. To your left, you will see a panorama of endless, brightly colored buildings seeming to glow under the sun. Straight ahead, the cobalt sea will be glittering with gentle waves as fishermen head out for their day of work. Enjoy exploring the town, dipping your toes in the sea, picking up some souvenirs, and taking plenty of photos! Your guide will be happy to point out the famous viewpoint (an instagrammer’s dream come true)! You will have about an hour of free time in Manarola.

Monterosso al Mare
After a 10 minute train ride to Monterosso, your guide will lead you directly to the wide, white sand beach, pointing out some of our favorite local spots along the way! You will have about 4 hours to relax on the beach, swim in the crystal clear water, and explore the town! Grab a pina colada, a cone of fresh fried seafood, and a perfect afternoon under the sun awaits! *If you prefer to explore another town in Cinque Terre, your guide will be happy to give you instructions to reach Vernazza, another town with a much smaller beach.
