Things to do in Porto Venere, Liguria: The Best Sights & Landmarks
This UNESCO World Heritage Site was a favorite of Byron, Shelley and D.H. Lawrence. (In fact, if you don’t mind a few rocks, you can swim at one of Byron’s favorite spots, now dubbed Byron’s Cove.) Portovenere’s San Pietro Church was built on the remains of a 6th-century church, which was itself built atop an ancient Roman temple to Venus. Relax and enjoy the boats bobbing in lines on the pretty bay, or daytrip to the Cinqueterre.

Plenty of restaurants and shops to keep you amused. A lot of people only use this place as a springboard to get to the five villages by boat. I actually enjoyed myself the most in this location although Monterosso was great for pasta!!
