The tower overlooking the Bay of Silence in Sestri Levante. The Bay of Silence is famous for its colorful houses overlooking the sea and just a few meters from the water. One of these buildings, which I called a tower in the title due to its structure, always fascinates me, especially for the view from the glass window on the top floor. Unfortunately, I have only enjoyed the view from someone else's shots, but I hope that one day someone will invite me up there.

The houses on the Sestri Peninsula seen from Ciappa du Lu. Some time ago now, I went to the famous rock called Ciappa du Lu (reachable from the path that starts from Sestri to go to Punta Manara). From there, with my telephoto lens, I took several photos of the Sestri Peninsula from an unusual (for me) perspective.
Don't you also think the view from this rock is splendid? Add your own comment or go to the bottom of the site to read what other visitors have written.

The caruggio of Sestri Levante, the heart of the town. In the heart of Sestri Levante, one of the pearls of Liguria, is the famous caruggio, officially known as Via XXV Aprile. This narrow pedestrian alley is the nerve center of city life, a place where history, culture and everyday life intertwine in a fascinating mosaic. Walking along the caruggio is like taking a step back in time. The colorful houses, with their decorated facades and flower-filled balconies, tell stories of a rich and vibrant past. Each building has its own unique character, reflecting the traditional Ligurian architecture that makes Sestri Levante so special. The caruggio is always lively, especially during the summer months. Here you will find numerous shops, bars, bakeries and restaurants offering a wide range of local products and culinary specialties. It is the ideal place to go shopping, enjoy an artisanal ice cream or simply sit at a café and watch the world go by. The caruggio is not just a road, but a path that leads to one of the most iconic places in Sestri Levante: the Baia del Silenzio. This corner of paradise, with its crystal clear waters and golden beach, is easily reached by walking along the caruggio, making the experience even more magical.
Visiting the caruggio of Sestri Levante means immersing yourself in the authenticity of Ligurian life. It is a place where the past and present meet, creating a unique and unforgettable atmosphere. Whether you are a tourist looking for new discoveries or a resident who loves his city, the caruggio always offers something special.

A stroll through the caruggio of Sestri Levante in Liguria. More or less around this time, but last year, I took this beautiful photo of the caruggio (this is what the pedestrian street that crosses a village is called in Liguria) of my town, Sestri Levante. Almost deserted, just as many Sestresi like it.

A Sunday morning in early March in the Bay of Silence. This morning the bay was truly spectacular. March and April are probably the best months to take a quiet walk, even on Sundays, in this heavenly place!

Corso Colombo e la torre di Palazzo Fascie-Rossi a Sestri Levante. Una delle vie principali del centro della mia cittadina è Corso Colombo. Carrabile ma spesso chiusa al traffico. Al centro spicca in Palazzo Fascie-Rossi con la sua bella torre.

A beautiful building in Piazza Bo in Sestri Levante. I have passed by this square thousands of times but I admit that I have never photographed this beautiful building located in Piazza Bo. I also ask for the help of visitors because I noticed that the square is dedicated to Francesco Bo, about whom I have not found any information online.

Gnocchi with clam sauce enjoyed Sergio's. When, with the family, we want to eat fish, without breaking the bank but eating good things, we go to Osteria da Sergio (in the Lapide area of Sestri Levante). This is the dish that my sister almost always chooses: the gnocchi, however, are seasoned with clam sauce. Very good!

The Marina di Ponente alley in Sestri Levante. This alley is probably better known if you photograph it from the other entrance but I also like it from this side, the seafront side. The red house at the end with the three green shutters and the beautiful green door.

The path that leads to the sea in Baia del Silenzio. Walking along via Portobello until you reach the entrance to the Ex Convento dell’Annuzniata you can continue along this narrow path until you reach one of the points with the most beautiful view of the Baia del Silenzio. That point, which as a boy I heard called “La Canala” has a wall completely covered with vandalistic graffiti that, however, over time have become truly characteristic.
