Marina di Portofino: Italy's Most Picturesque Harbour

This tiny harbour on the Italian Riviera is one of the most photographed in the world.

Picture Perfect

Portofino is perhaps the most photographed harbour in the Mediterranean. The tiny village with its pastel buildings surrounding a miniature harbour is the essence of Italian Riviera glamour.

Limited Access

The harbour is tiny — only small yachts can berth along the quay. Superyachts anchor in the bay and tender ashore or visit for lunch.

The Experience

Lunch at Splendido or Da Puny, browsing boutiques, watching the world go by in the piazzetta — Portofino is about experience, not facilities.

Getting There

By sea or by scenic coastal road from Santa Margherita Ligure. Genoa airport is 45 minutes away.
