Located in the most internal and protected area of the Gulf of Tigullio, Rapallo offers beaches
that are not only well-maintained and fully equipped but also feature unexpected natural surprises
and exclusive beauty. For example, San Michele di Pagana, a tiny and picturesque village just 1
km from the centre, boasts beautiful beaches.
The coast here is divided mainly into three bays: Pomaro, Trelo (or Travello), and Prelo, each
nestled within classic and typical Ligurian villages with arcades, central squares, fishermen's
beaches, and shops.
Continuing along the coast, don't miss the small inlets among the rocks, both free and private
beaches along the panoramic road to Portofino, and the charming bays of Paraggi and San
Fruttuoso.
Rapallo is also famous for its marina, equipped with all modern facilities, located in the beautiful
Gulf of Tigullio, between the charming "Baia del Silenzio" (Bay of Silence) in Sestri Levante and
the natural harbour of Portofino.
Moreover, tourist ferry-boats link Rapallo with Santa Margherita Ligure and Portofino, and they
also reach the bay of San Fruttuoso and Camogli
